My first degree, the one I got from UConn, was also in Math. I also left those studies behind. I’ve subsequently worked with numbers and statistics but, as I replied when someone asked when I was a math major why I did not trade my slide rule in for a calculator:Education is important and I'm impressed with Morgan. On the flip side of the coin, my math degree culminating with 2 semesters of differential equations was about a 98% waste of time of effort. So, there's also something to be said for "live for today". (Not advice I would ever give to my kids, but here on the BY, well...)
About four semesters of my math degree were incredibly useful. A lot of the rest of it was fun, if not all that useful. DiffEqs, though, was a total waste of time; we learned nothing useful plus it was no fun.Education is important and I'm impressed with Morgan.

I watched the Instagram video earlier and now the below ad that showed up on my FB page appears to be very similar.What the heck were those leg things?
Me too. US History degree that took me 11 years (active duty). Probably worth 0.00 cents in my post military life.Education is important and I'm impressed with Morgan.

Me three. My BS degree in History/Sociology has not been worth much in my work career. But the Navy did pay quite a bit of it. And my Navy experience/job is what got me jobs post military.Me too.

Exactly. Marketable skills learned in the military are what got me jobs after I retired from the Navy. To many kids today go deep in debt to pay for an education for which there is no demand.Me three. My BS degree in History/Sociology has not been worth much in my work career.
