Just bought a stake in this. After I finish this bottle of vodka, I’m gonna go up to the dean’s office and tell him what’s what.
"I don’t think you’re charging enough for tuition,” I will begin, and cackle drunkenly because I haven’t payed back my student loans either. I’m not too terribly concerned about them. One day, after I die, they won’t matter at all. They will be ‘forgiven’. Haha.
Next up: investing in college bookstores, because JESUS H. CHRIST! You buy a book for $200, then trade it in for $8, then the very next semester it’s $198. The very same book (I know, I secretly marked mine).
If that ain’t a brilliant business plan, I don’t know what it is. Goddamn.
I used to think college was a scam that sent millions of people into lifelong debt, with only a small percentage realizing their actual dreams, financially speaking, but I was wrong. The cultural pressure of “everybody must go to college” actually keeps prices high.
So, yeah, kids. Go to college. I’m investing in your future!
