i don’t get what your point is to the OP - that he shouldn’t care about money or going to a top school, or that he should try to make a lot of money anyway? Entrepreneurs make the most money, but is running some start-up company that will make someone another rich businessguy selling crap gonna make him happy in the long run? Well, maybe, idk. but personally i consider an engineer creating new technology or the doc saving lives or the novelist writing books or the scientist discovering stuff a lot more noteworthy or innovative anyday</p>
<p>Bronson seems to be convinced that Top College = Lots of money = Success! and that’s kind of sad. i’ve never met anyone in real life who cares about college selectivity like this, including people at “top schools” or whatever.
dude, no one cares. there is no difference between being ranked 50 or 42 or whatever. my college is ranked in the top 50 somewhere, i have no clue where, and i know my employer isn’t going to give a rat’s ass, neither are my friends or family. the only people who care about college rankings are those whose school is ranked really high, because no one else has any reason to care.</p>
<p>and if you’re really miserable at your college, transfer out. instead of thinking about transferring to a college ranked #36 or something, think like this: What makes you unhappy at your college? Is it too small? Not diverse? Boring? etc…then go from there.</p>
