Cha-ching!

Now, I'll grant you, not everyone goes to college in order to attain skills needed to secure a job capable of financially supporting a lifestyle of one's hopes, there are certainly other outstanding uses of what one learns in college, however, the vast majority are attempting to acquire the skills needed to support themselves and perhaps a family financially. What that means is doing some research in the market for who is hiring and what they're hiring for. We all have equal value as human beings, however, the job market determines our financial worth, which is why I often roll my eyes at the wealth distribution inequity debate.
