Taking a survey about High School Diplomas vs. College Degrees vs. Some College Credits?

Many people say that a college degree will earn you more money, so I wanted to see what you all think. How many of you have either a high school diploma, a college degree, or some college and you either have a position that you love and make more than enough money or you are barely making ends meet? Also, do you feel as though your education played a factor in your current employment or your work experience and work ethic?

Taking a survey about High School Diplomas vs. College Degrees vs. Some College Credits?
Most employers now days will give a person with a degree a job faster than a person with only a high school diploma. So GO TO College.
Reply:Well, maybe my answer isn't referring to your questio, so I apologize in advance.





I'm currently in College and I'm working in an all-right job making more money than I should be. But it definitely isn't a job that I want to be working in. However as I start finishing my college courses I want to start looking around for jobs for me.





As a matter of fact I got this job before I went to College. I started it after high school (I graduated a semester early)
Reply:with a high school diploma and seeking a job where i have years experceince i am not having any luck at all getting a job most employers want some type of college degree. While i have the expereince. Also the more money we make the more money we spend everyone is always finding them selfs pinching pennies here and there. and yes most people education plays an important role in their life
Reply:Credits and degrees is not really nessary to achieve respect and fortune. .. The only people in my life that are rolling rich is the doctors of specialty sercices. Cancer doctor is a very lucerative position. Heart specialists.. Be a doctor if you gona slave over studies...
Reply:I love my job. College graduate, making exactly what I deserve. I wouldn't have this job without a degree and I don't think I'd be making what I make without it either.
Reply:ive heard it both ways, but more often than not, those with a degree cant get any better paying job than myself. I'm making about 23k a year which is almost poverty level for a household of 3. Cant get food stamps (which is ok with me cept for those rough times of year when the company cuts back on hours). I am looking to get back into school and get a degree but what i want to do doesnt pay much. I want photography and with todays world being digital i just need to find a good camera, excellent scenery and someone to buy my photos. I do want a degree, it'll make me feel better about me but i cant guarantee it will land me a better job. Kudos to those who have their degrees!
Reply:I have a bachelors degree and am now working on a Masters. I'm having a hard time making ends meet. But I would not give up my college background for anything because it has taught me so much and most importantly the ability to think and analyze. It is a tough economy out there. The old rules do not seem to apply. You do not need a college education but it is recommended. However, it is not worth going into debt for. I am going into debt with my masters but I think that I will be able to pay it back because of my next chosen field (accounting). My husband has had some college courses and is in a trade that pays well. He makes more than I do. But it's very hard to keep up because the costs of living have increased tremendously over the past few years. It's kind of scarey because I wonder what does the future hold and what will retirement be like because how will we be able to save enough for that time? We aren't planning to retire but what if illness or sudden accident occurs and then what? I don't understand why more Americans insist on taking care of it themselves. It seems most of us will not be able to do it. Do they think that their lives aren't worth anything? Do they want to risk everything they have worked hard for? I don't. I think we should do something collectively so that we all have some sense of security. It will do a lot to restore confidence, credibility, and security.
