Default Re: Tips To Save On College

Funny Valentine: you have made some good points and thanks for the link I will look at it. I will also think about your thoughts. Yes, I am in graduate school to open my own clinic and get away from the commoner and their mentality. However, I stand by my comments: Pay for what you get and don't expect someone else to. I also stand by and support my comments on stealing - renaming it to a tax, charity, scholarship, benefit - is stealing. Because when you give free tuition to an employee you are giving away a lot. My education is over $20,000 for my graduate degree and I resent the tuition being raised for a freebie seeking employee's son or daughter. Because, yes they raise the tuition and make ME pay for it. I am tired of paying taxes for smokers, beer drinkers, gas burning boat riders who do not have their priorities straight. Again, I do not have cable, cell phones, take vacations, smoke, drink, burn gas stupidly (I ride my bike everywhere I can, and even to work) TO PAY FOR WHAT WE GET. I support my comment on debtors jail - filing bankruptcy is stealing just called something else. It is like walking into a store and taking a pack of gum and walking out. Just called something else. Renaming it does not make it stealing and the ten commandments says: Thou shalt not steal, period!

Now for all of you who would like more information on the topic:
