The cashier at my old job in Reno told me she made more than her son with a master's, and it got me thinking
She showed me her check stub, $22 an hour plus overtime, and said her kid owes $60k for a degree that pays $19. I keep wondering if I should tell my little brother to look at trade work before he signs anything, anyone been through that talk with family?
So the kid paid 60 grand to make less than the lady scanning his groceries. That's a math problem nobody warns you about.
As for your brother, yeah, have that talk, but maybe leave out the part where you sound like a fortune cookie. Just tell him straight, nobody's handing out trophies for the expensive piece of paper.
