I believe college education is still worth the exorbitant cost IF there is a clear plan and IF the student is serious about getting a degree that will lead to a money making career. Too many students (me included) have no clue what they want to do. In my day my parents were paying $2500 per semester... no so much anymore.

I recall a statement made by a man I admired. “When my friends were buying snowmobiles and boats, I was buying land and tractors.” Gaining value vs. losing value. Tractors are expensive, but you still need them.

The only option to living among the smartest people in the world, is to you wish you were. I think we spend a lot of money on stuff that isn’t as important. Higher education is too expensive. But I don't think we can say it may not be worth it.
