I'm going to college just to get a better job. I'd like to study some stuff just to do it, but I don't have the money for that.

 

If you're planning to go to law/medical/business school, your major doesn't matter. Study whatever interests you.

 

 

 

2 year community college :P . Don't even get electives.

Bus ride to uni: $2

 

Text books for second semester: $380

 

Subway after lectures: $5.90

 

That CD I bought at skinny's before jumping the bus home: $25

 

A jobless uni student: worthless.

I'm priceless. :roll:

+1..living at home going to college ftw.

Lets see... 62.5ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãââ a day... 2.604166666ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãââ an hour... .0434027778ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãââ a minute... .00072337963ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãââ a second... That means I make 1ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãââ every 1382.3999992922 seconds, or 1ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãââ every 23.039999988203 minutes.

I recieve 72kr every day. So that'd be about... 7ÃÆââââ¬Ã¡Ãâì I think. Unless I miscalculated somewhere, my earnings per second is somewhere around 8.1*10^(-5).

 

 

 

And I'm excempt from all kinds of work related laws involving, say, hours per week before it hits "slave labour".

 

 

 

... at least the meals are free...

 

 

 

Thread fails.

As opposed to "what's your alignment", "random google pictures of cat's with text, or "look, MS Paint RELOADED!"?

I'm priceless. :roll:

 

 

 

I was waiting for that one :P

 

 

 

Im worth about ÃÆââââ¬Ã¡Ãâì15,6 per week,

 

About ÃÆââââ¬Ã¡Ãâì62 each month,

 

+pocketmoney 8 euros each month

 

+cash money 10 euros each month, but I forget that most of the time.

I'm not worth anything, I'm a human, I'm priceless.

Those are amusing though. This fails because not all of us have current jobs because of school.

Let's see, in college I was worth about hmm... very rough estimates...

 

 

 

-10k a year in tuition

 

-3.5k a year in housing

 

-3kish in utilities, insurance, etc

 

-4kish in food

 

 

 

So I was about 21k a year in the bucket.

 

57 dollars a day in the bucket

 

$2.40 an hour

 

4 cents a minute

 

 

 

So my worth in college per minute was negative ~.07 cents a second.

You can't really say "how much" someone is "worth", unless you're speaking of a society that accepts slavery, or one that values one race above the other ones. If a baseball player/drug dealer earns millions a month, and a doctor thousands a month, who would you say is more productive/necessary to society? Who would then be worth more?

 

 

 

Maybe I'm just weird, but I'm not going to study something because it'll give me a high-paying job, I'm going to study [Physics] because I'm good at, I'm interested in it, and because it maybe will allow me to reach different things. However, have you ever heard of physicists earning as much as lawyers, or even getting good jobs?

Education = Knowledge = Money

 

 

 

Few study just to study.

 

 

 

Most know at the end of college is a high paying career.

 

 

 

Maybe so.

 

 

 

But maybe a lot of people waste their lives with this philosophy...

 

 

 

I'm worthless, yay me! =D>

I'm worthless, yay me! =D>

 

 

 

Yup, we are worth nothing. Wow, that sounds depressing although it really isn't just because i don't have a job yet because i'm busy with school :P

My personal business in jewellery and money on the side from motivational speaking is more money than my degree has gotten me LOL

 

 

 

University doesn't always = win.

[boast]

 

Tomorrow I'll be worth a fortune.

 

Working 6 hours on a double time and a half rate. :D

 

[/boast]

... didn't see everyone get a "RL picture" either.

I earn ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã83.30 per day ($166)

 

So ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã3.37 per hour ($6.74)

 

So ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã0.06 per minute ($0.12)

 

So about 1p per ten seconds (or 1cent per five seconds)

Those are amusing though. This fails because not all of us have current jobs because of school.

thats not my point. My point is his idea of our 'worth' is flawed.

C'mon... It's "flawed" the same way the "RL pictures" are flawed; Inaccurate and frivolous. Yet rather than play along - which is what usually happends - or ignore it because it doesn't apply to you, this one "fails". Which is really the point I'm getting at; Defender just doesn't have enough e-credz for this kind of thread to work...

Wrong.

 

Education = knowledge = power

 

 

 

Wrong.

 

Most study because they crave knowledge. If money is your only motivation, you're going to have a rough few years at university...

 

 

 

Wrong.

 

Where I live, as in most of the Western world I believe, it's the higher educated people who can't find jobs. There's a shortage of people to perform technical (e.g. electricians) and menial work (e.g. builders).

 

 

 

There are more non-profitable university trajects (languages, arts, psychology,...) than profitable ones (engineer, economics, law). I myself have been paid way below my grade for a few years.

I'm still unsure of why you're even trying to argue this BlueTear.

 

 

 

I don't (and a lot of us do) think that our worth is simply measured by how much money we are making.

 

 

 

The picture thread was (for the most part) pretty on the money for a lot of people by the way. :P . And, at any rate, it was mostly just exaggerating a point -- not supposed to actually mean this is what that person is exactly.

Where would this forum be without defender. I would buy you for 1p per 12 seconds defender. Don't you worry.

how does our income determine how much you're worth?

The question he's asking isn't open for interpretation though. The definition he wanted to use for the word 'worth' was clearly outlined in the first post.
