When WPSearch is activated I am no longer able to save custom menus.
I’m using WordPress 3.2.1 with the Twenty Eleven theme.

I definitely wouldn’t advise skipping undergrad — I just wanted to point out how risky the idea of taking out big loans for it is, and how in contrast, joining a startup is a much less risky idea (but again, how that is completely at odds with middle class thinking, where most of us come from).

If we tell kids to skip college, then we need to completely reform high school education. Most people just aren’t prepared at 18, in the US at least.

A better solution is to advise high school students to attend state universities, two year community colleges, or recognized trade schools. These are way cheaper and kids should not be ashamed to attend them.

I think of myself as someone who hustles, but I wonder if I was saddled with 6 figures if I’d be so bogged down I couldn’t (or wouldn’t care about) hustling anymore.

And then there’s stuff like this in the news: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/even-a-phd-couldn-t-keep-this-man-off-food-stamps.html

Now, when I talk to VCs or other advisors about my startup, they’ll tell me I should have stayed for the PhD because that will increase the valuation of my company. I guess the point is that there’s a flip side to this coin. You can get an education and have other people pay you for your studies. Just keep hustling and you’ll eventually hit something as long as you don’t give up.

I do whole heartedly agree that putting yourself 6 figures into debt for a bachelor’s degree is a bad deal.
