Gaps in Alumni Earnings Stand Out in Release of College Data
University is a scam.<p>I feel so bitter. I just graduated 1 month ago. I could have continued with my masters by I am done. I hated every second of being in university.<p>Not because of any other reason but because of how bleak my financial prospect was. I consider myself lucky that my parents bankrolled me - but looking at the aggregate amount I spent on it - 60,000 pounds.<p>I paid 60,000 pounds literally to read a bunch of books and write some code that could run on a computer from the 1980s, which I could have done on my own from my parent's basement.<p>Every-time a lecturer gave a low-effort lecture I felt like punching them in the face, I could feel the the negative acceleration of my net worth everyday I woke up from sleep. How was I to recover it ? Is it even possible ?<p>Meanwhile there is so much opportunities, so much data to explore, so much work to done. 
Its a crime that so many young minds are made to waste their time on meaningless stuff while they would start with small apprenticeship and allowed to grow.
