Colleges revel when students/graduates have no financial literacy and are mere wage cucks. “Hey, it keeps the corruption going” Know of people who still pursue (mostly worthless) degrees well into their 50s. Although I graduated college in the early nineties, and it was affordable, I never stepped foot in a classroom thereafter. My preference is to learn independently rather than listen to diarrhea-speaking “out of touch” professors.
Learned more from independently reading financial publications (WSJ, Business Week, etc.) right after college than I did in the 4 years I spent in college, with a business and math degree. Most of that crap (99 percent) was boring theory or graph reading.
The only section IMO that is useful regarding math and business is compounding interest versus all that advanced math, stats, and accounting coursework.
The only course that was worthwhile to me was real estate principles, and that was not even affiliated with the college I went to at the time, but the teacher was extremely financially literate, and I skipped a night class for 4 weeks just to take the real estate licensing course. Although it was way back in early 1990 (pre-internet) I remembered never getting bored during the 4 hours each night attending the class.
