I work in education, and honestly, I would support any of my students in searching out a trade vs. going the traditional college route. My boy has a Ph.D. and works at Borders. He was laid off in the process of getting his doctorate from CSU and never bounced back. He stopped writing and publishing articles. He tried administration for the school districts, but they required him to start teaching again in order to apply for an admin position.
Dudes acting like they gettting retirement money for flipping a pair of shoes once a month, where most of us on here would pay that extra 20% just to secure a pair to keep. Now if you re-selling a whole stores inventory every release then you might be on to something. But we talking around $45 for this release maybe 32 for general releases. By the time you get your money back from ebay/paypal is it really worth it for only 1 pair.
Not really. Depends on what u wanna do. I make around 80,000 a year and i have a high school diploma. I havent reached top pay yet neither so to each his own
initially i said something dickish like...it took u a college degree + grad degree to figure that out. i meant to say that my comment was unnecessary. but yeah if ur going to private school or out of state to study liberal arts, it is unnecessary and can actually ruin your life
Im a correction officer. My base pay plus my guaranteed overtime puts me at about 80,000 a year. Civil service is where its at. Pension, health benefits, 20 year retirement etc. private industry is for the birds.
I am not knocking you at all or your salary, but $80K is not enough for me. I was making more than that before I finished college, plus I think working in my field is less stressful and deal with less criminals.
I feel you. Im just saying im fortunate to be making a decent wage with only a HS diploma. I know people with masters degrees working at starbucks smh
What happened to the train?

It ain't retirement money, but $45 is something significant. I made $103.25 from flipping Bel Air V's. Is that a bad move?

You're only viewing that ROI in a vacuum. What happens when a shoe sells out and you have no choice but to buy at reseller prices? There goes your profit margin and part of the reason why there is less stock to go around is because somebody else wants an easy 20% ROI.
Consider yourself lucky. However, a college grad, with the right moves and career, can blow your earnings out of the water.
don't knock the mans hustle. No doubt a college grad can blow him out the water. You think he aint know that. He's happy doing what he do out of high school and make decent bread.
