Since when

does not having a degree = an excuse to not work?  And that working for less than $30k per year isn't worth going to work for?  Ayfkm!!

Re: Since when

  • Good question. I would like two of whatever she's taking. Confused
  • It sounds like we're doing it all wrong.

    Let's all rack up debt and become SAHM's. Then claim we're single mothers to the child we TRIED for.  Oh, and if we get court orders, not show up.  Seems to work well for her.

  • Really, no degree means gee you cannot work??

    I know of 2 men who never even finished 8th grade -- they are now well into their sunset years, as millionaires. They are self made buisinessmen and company owners and did very well.

    And I know of somebody else who took 2 college courses and got into the computer field that way. He did much better than most WITH a degree.

    I guess we are talking about that person who is in debt and ignored the court order.
  • FYI....she posted the same exact thing in the Money Matters section....I guess she's doing it to see if somehow she will get a different response? 

    Maybe she's hoping people will say sureeeee, go right ahead and ignore your financial obligations lol 

  • I wish that no degree = no work and that I could be a SAHW! 

     

    Not really, because I'd be bored out of my freaking mind...  but still. That lady is one crazy person.

     I agree on both comments!  I have no degree but I'm self employed and work my a$$ off.  It's called making something of your life.

    Maybe there is a magic genie that's in the software of these boards and all you need to do is go to each board to find the genie!!!

    OP: if you are lurking, woman up and listen to what we have to say. It's not pretty but wow, what else do you want us to tell you??
  • lol @ magic genie.

    I'm pretty sure even the genie would tell her what everyone else has ;) 

  • I feel so jilted. I didn't go to college, yet I work. But I only make 25K per year. Soooo not worth it.

    /sarcasm

  • I am the one with the degree between my DH and I, and he makes a bit more than I do right now, so saying you can't work because you don't have a degree is a load of crap.  She needs to grow up, get a job, and take care of her business.  I'm sure that $30k could pay of that debt real fast.  Anyone with a brain would know what kind of a response she would get.
