Ivy League Question

I’m a sophomore in high school and I’m curious, how come people that go to an Ivy League school, like Harvard, are more successful and wealthier than people who don’t go to an Ivy League school? Is the only ticket to becoming wealthy going to an elite school?

Anyone? :slight_smile:

Damn girl! Have patience. It was 3 minutes.

Anyway…

This is not true. The overwhelming majority of people did not go to an Ivy League college. They only represent a small portion of the population. You know good and well that going to an elite college is not the only way to become wealthy. Tell your parents to stop pressuring you so much. You can go to a school in Podunk, Iowa and have a very fulfilling life. There are people who saved money and went to less expensive, lower ranked schools and are extremely successful. For people who are low income, an elite school could be a ticket out of poverty, but it doesn’t guarantee wealth.

I’m sorry hahah I would’ve forgotten about the thread. But thank you for calming my nerves down :slight_smile: I’m just super worried about that one C.

That should probably get sticky-ed on the front page.

Wow, I love that.
