ABC 20/20: Bachelors Degrees May Not Be Worth the Money???
#10
Lindagerr Wrote:I know a girl my daughters age (mid thirties) who was a gifted A student all through school, went to a good college earned her BS degree in psychology, I don't know what she planned to do with it, but she is still working as a waitress in the same place she started when she was 16. I don't think she is ever going to earn her $1 mil.


I wonder if college was her idea or her parents.

Do you know if she enjoys her work ?

I do find it interesting her degree is in Psychology and she is working in a job that has her constantly interacting with others. Does she use what she learned in psychology to get bigger tips ? Or maybe she is using what she learned to help others ... does she listen to her customers stories, etc. ?
