In part three of this series on why college is a scam, I focus on three key points. First, college courses often teach theory but lack practical skills—you don’t truly know something until you’ve done it and can teach it. Second, the money you’re borrowing is funding those beautiful campuses, not necessarily your education. Finally, some careers like medicine, law, or engineering need a degree, but for many others, relationships and real-world experience matter more than grades. Think carefully about what you need before committing to college.

Show Notes:

[16:44] #8 The high cost of tuition pays for campus amenities and staff salaries.
[24:58] #9 Some careers need degrees, but many don’t.
