You're pointing this at the wrong person here. I'm not the one who said that a degree from an ivy league school guarantees you big money.

Hell I'll even move up there to be Landshark's neighbor to send my kid there. $100k straight out of highschool is awesome dude.

About him being able to pass the bar right out of highschool. Problem is, his job has less than nothing to do with political science and/or law. Niether is needed to sell bicycle parts.

Anyone with half a brain? You just excluded yourself
The fact is that a degree from one of those schools simply means you paid way too much for your education. You still have to go out and compete for a job just like everyone else does. The school will make it sound like employers roll out the red carpet and push all the other applicants aside when someone with a degree from their school applies. A great sales pitch apparently, cause it works. Problem is it's completely not true. If anything, it's harder to get a job with a highbrow degree because companies would rather pay the state school graduate $40k than pay the ivy graduate $60k. On top of that, if anyone with experience in the field shows up, you are SOL.
