Mike is out of touch He’s never worked a blue collar job He vacationed in the lives of other men one week at a time Do you think Mike wants his own kids to grow up and become roofers or drive 18 wheelers? All money aside, white collar people live longer-healthier lives and can net the same if not better income across their careers Comment from : @JohnPharroh-w5h |

Universities should have to make the student loans out of their endowments, that way the university has a vested interest in the student's success post-graduation and they will have to teach relevant courses for jobs that are in demand Comment from : @jessefletcher9116 |

Right after this segment concluded, an ad came up for Cal State Chico - considered one of the biggest party schools in the USbrMike Rowe's argument gets fortified: why should people who never went to college have to pay for those who did - especially if all they do is party, get drunk/high, and waste their lives away?

It's our perceptions that screw us up! Education is a great thing Security is the issue We put faith into finding employment instead of creating a practice and taking control instead School teachers are the worst Hooked into a tyrannical system that doesn't care about personal interests We need less swallowers and more leaders Comment from : @stanleymcvay9283 |

I taught civil engineering and architecture at a HS Academy I had my students for four years and within their lessons I made sure they knew enough Autocad and Revit so they could interview with either discipline if they wished 95 of my students went to a university to continue in one of the fields Comment from : @daniell6317 |

Trade wages have been frozen for 20 years due to illegal immigrants! So it would be great if those jobs are open, but they are not! Comment from : @bitadanger |

So unfortunate All the politicians talk about infrastructure, but there's no one to do the work No shipyards, no steel workers, no pipefitters and few competent site managers Everyone wants to flip homes, killing our housing market, or do social media enterprises that accomplish nothing; Comment from : @jayaudette2063 |

Mike Rowe lead me to the trades I remember struggling wondering whats the best route in life for me to take and he basically showed me the way to HVAC Comment from : @VF1Skullangel |

In 1965, after my graduation from HS, I got turned down by the only college I applied to After returning from 4 years in the US Army (1965-1969 Vietnam) that same college took me in I quit after 6 months and never looked back I did landscaping, worked in a brokerage house and finally took a job selling cars I never thought I’d do it forever but here I am at 78, retired, unemployed, happy, married, no mental problems or addictions College is not for everyone and Mike Rowe has the right idea I wish I’d known sooner!

People with liberal arts degrees generally do well over the long term If you get a degree and can’t find a career, don’t blame the diploma on the wall Take a look at the person in the mirror That person is holding you back, not your education Comment from : @robertroulston789 |
|
|
Somehow, a 4-year degree became expensive probably due to government intervention and university greed The government guaranteed student loan is the straw that broke the camel's back Universities and colleges could charge whatever they wanted I joined the Marine Corps The government paid for my education however I had to fight a war to get it Comment from : @richardharrold4357 |

In the early 1970s, I did not think that many college degrees were worth it They were better for the schools than the students Many majors are a luxury for those who have big money to spare Comment from : @onlyone2948 |

Going to college is good if you need it for your career But if you don't need a degree, you're most likely better off without it, you're potentially just putting yourself in debt and wasting your best years When you could be getting ahead in your career Comment from : @jasonjosephlee |

Change the way the interest rate is calculated Interest compounded daily is the way these loans are structured Go with simple interest 100k loan pays 20 percent or 120k total Comment from : @rolandlymangrover754 |

If engineering degrees were shrunk down to 2 years, we'd have a bunch of engineering technicians who are only qualified to draw pretty pictures or to turn dials on a machine They won't have the faintest idea why they are doing what they are doing, or what the consequences are until they mess up Comment from : @aeroeng22 |

I have nothing against Mike but if he thinks getting a good job in the trades in America is easy:He is kinda foolish It takes an Iron will and 20 years of working to get thereWay harder than going to college Comment from : @MrCliffmn |

Higher education wants to enslave generations of students with student loan debt folks The degrees for the most part, are useless, but employers use them as weed out tools Higher education is another corporate rip off Comment from : @grogmanic |

I appreciate this conversation At the same time, I worry that people will start making blanket statements like "college isn't useful for anybody" That's not true Yes, there are a lot of great jobs you can get without a degree But there are also lots of jobs that require a college degree For a functioning society, we need all kinds of workers If you're happy and can be successful in a job that doesn't require a college degree, great But if you like college and want to do something that requires more advanced education and training, that's great too Also, I think there is A LOT of value to education that goes beyond job training So, while I appreciate what Mike Rowe is saying, I also do not think we should poo-poo a college education Comment from : @DavidSmith-og1oz |

school should be to prepare someone for a career; something a person can enjoy doing while earning a living, and contribute to the betterment of society bring back trade schools get rid of waste classes in colleges make further education affordable make it relevant everybody wins Comment from : @carollowe3704 |

Not just a PR problem It's a problem of delivering value Majoring in X studies < Electrical, plumbing, carpentry, etc Comment from : @slawrence999 |

They keep saying college degrees dont matter but unfortunately the job market says different for Upper management No a college degree isn't needed but it is to get those 80k and up jobs in the corp world cause people who hire at these companies are still living in the stone age Comment from : @djelliott3158 |
|

Let's look at people with degrees as a "group" Some groups have good people Some groups have white black asian or mixed people Some groups have murders Bottom line? Some groups have people have really stupid people AND I know personally some who just obtained actual degrees by having others do their studies Mike Rowe is a great person but the majority of these jobs will be disappearing November 5th cw2 2a Comment from : @johnleca |

The connection between cost of college and worth of the increased knowledge was always 'collective delusion' at best Good description, Mike brHowever, getting a decree did and does suggest ability and willingness to take discipline I had 4 years, no degree, and know about how much I learned that I later used: about zero Comment from : @johnlaudenslager706 |

Great video Comment from : @ruthfittz |

Rule #1 don't get a degree that doesn't get you a marketable skill That is a scam However, learning a trade and starting or learning to run a business takes time too Nobody is just going to hand you anything I think this kind of mentality will also separate the people educated in the right thing vs those who don't Comment from : @440hzguitar |

Keep the population stupid and compliantthat's the Republican mantra and the underlying message of this Fox News video For profit education is another 'only in the USA' thing that is fully supported by the right wing Bread and circuses for the proletariat Comment from : @karlhungus545 |

As a PhD educated Engineer, I'm proud to say that my tradie son already out-earns me and has much better job satisfaction than I've ever had He is a fast learner and he very early realised how pointless my career path was and proceeded to forge his own way Comment from : @MeanMogy |

That’s why in my town they want a college education for a job that pays 15/hour Comment from : @teresahughes3444 |
|

College? I have "some" college and paid as I went I attended only classes I hoped would bolster my earning capacity and half of my time and money was wasted I am a champion of practical education and a critic of the high-dollar campus delivery system Aside from lab work, sitting in a classroom is unnecessary I can and do read and hold my own in nearly any circle I am a millionaire with a GED Comment from : @1Skeptik1 |

I'm a licensed electrician and master plumber and we earn nothing compared to an engineer, scientist, physician, please always pursue a college degree, it's much much better Comment from : @angelpsierra1944 |

There’s no way university should be that expensive! It’s outrageous Comment from : @TonyCEOofSelf |
|

TLDR: Fox Propaganda encourages people to stay uneducated and ignorant so they keep voting Republican and make policies that favor millionaires, billionaires, gun lobbyists, military lobbyists, and private healthcare lobbyists Comment from : @zenon3021 |
|
|
One thing they didn’t talk about was if 22 of the country goes and gets an engineering degree…now all of a sudden you’re going to have a lot of unemployed engineers because there’s too many of them Meanwhile the few who pursued betting a skilled tradesmen can be raking in money because there’s such a low supply of them and such a high demand Comment from : @andrewmiller2478 |
|
|
This isnt “bold” but obvious for 20 years Most college degrees are useless, don’t translate to a decent career, and lead to lifelong student loan debt Comment from : @mikemccormick8115 |
|
|
I think the 4 year degree is stupid There shouldn't be a giant general education after high school There should only be specialized degrees that actually teach you that specialization Comment from : @LookingAway359 |

Mike Rowe😎 Comment from : @kkroyu |
|
|
Not a bold claim, many people have degrees, broke and with debt because of it Big ticket purchases, house etc even marriage, all delayed Kids had later, makes retirement later Comment from : @davidcarp5935 |
|
|
Perhaps if you pursued an education you would understand the difference between anecdotes and facts No one made you go to college You were always able to say no, not for me, and become a plumber An education is for your enrichment, it was never a guarantee of money or success Note 1: Rowe is a university graduate Note 2: Rowe is a multi-millionaire Comment from : @machinetimes |
|
|
I don't think as many young men and women see the value anymore There are absolutely people that will go the skilled trades route, but there are also young people that have learned more about investing early, owning assets, using social media to make money etc There are "kids" making video game apps in high school making more money than their parents Comment from : @focused313 |
|
|
So why does he have a degree? Comment from : @callummorgan7495 |
|
|
he really isn’t wrong College, unless you are going for a STEM degree, is practically useless and just a money-laundering scheme Comment from : @daRealB-Rex |

Yep that’s what we were told, that the ONLY way is through college Comment from : @EPmessi9800 |
