I've been saying this for about 5 years now
Comment from : @dwilson5001

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

The biggest problem is colleges pad their degrees 80 of my classes were useless, time I could’ve used actually developing skills for a job All that “education” and I’m still homeless

The degree has become a commodity you purchase and the student is a mere consumer Brilliant

Mike Rowe is a national treasure

The overwhelming majority of college students are getting scammed
Comment from : @ArloPear25

The dumbest people I have met were all college graduates
Comment from : @venomnbk3326

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

I agree with some things said here, but it feels like there was some propaganda at the end

MIKE ROWE IS A GEM IN THIS COUNTRY, IN CASE NO ONE NOTICED
Comment from : @anthonydefalco4205

Don't listen to a guy discredit college who himself benefited in life from his college degree
Comment from : @othaharris-k3l

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?

Computers ruined the high school industrial arts programs and you are seeing results of this as the trades have suffered they sold the though that computrss would make every body a living

Colleges and Universities have been fully infiltrated by leftist and communist professors !brYou send your kid to university to become how to be a communist
Comment from : @valkry007

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

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

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

I do a hands on tech job I am the go to man for all my techs brMy STEM degree helps my company do things other companies can’tbr Tech is infinite it’s the Liberal Arts degrees that are worthless jokes
Comment from : @Bruce-e8h

I have a physics degree, if the internet existed in my youth I never would have stepped on a campus
Comment from : @Bruce-e8h

Time and again it happens No degree hard worker makes millions Degrees are the ultimate of specialization If you’re specialized you must be part of an organization br Inside any organization you will NOT be the one getting the top cut of profits
Comment from : @Bruce-e8h

Whe retired i tolf my boss that the company was in trouble becaue most of the workers were within ten years of retirement and they needed to bring in some young people to learn from the older workers he told me they wete trying but younger people didn't want to learn to operate machines any more they want to eey in front of s computers and play games
Comment from : @stephenb7902

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

Of course it’s Biden’s fault What an idiot

100 thousand dollars a year is nothing bro yo8u ayall are mentally inferior wow

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

LOVE Mike Rowe! This video makes me love him more❤❤❤ He truly is THE MAN!brWe need more classes about REAL LIFE!
Comment from : @lindapp1337

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

The decreased interest in college did not come from Biden passing student loan forgiveness That’s dum
Comment from : @TheRenaissanceAmazon

Fake college's
Comment from : @anthonyesparsen9453

College education was financialized It was turned into a commodity These Fox News blowhards couldn't care less about that
Comment from : @synupps877

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

Does anyone know what study mike was referencing at 4:40?

Not wrong
Comment from : @JeffEbe-te2xs

True
Comment from : @Fruittypebbles-f5u

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

Tapper politicize college degrees really quick 😂brBut 100 some degrees are a bunch of BS
Comment from : @119Otis

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

Government pushed college degree biggest scam in US history

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

Remember kids For charlatans to keep power, they need ignorants voters
Comment from : @Alban-ez5wn

Go to trade school College is not worth the paper it's degrees are printing out on
Comment from : @GlassellPark

I have a 2 year degree and I make 120k a year I am the best at what I do and the company that I work for compensate me well for it You just need to be good at something
Comment from : @mrpabs5864

If going to school at least get into a stem program not those nonsense bs degrees and no need an mba they are worthless Got into tech making over $200k

How does a business major rank
Comment from : @princeofheaven19

College graduates stillbrMake more money than high school graduates overall Trade school is fine but Engineers make more money without killing their bodies Have you met construction workers who at in their 60’s? Carpenters? HVAC? There are some but they look twice their age
Comment from : @tungdiep2000

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
