Stay in School!!

Why you should stay in college, some real world facts.

It’s too late to save me but maybe I can save you.


Your work load- at least 40 hours every week the entire year with two weeks of vacation (if your lucky), you have to go every day and no, you don’t get president’s day off.

Salary = extra work, no overtime

Smoking- it’s horrible for your health, but it gets you a 10 minute break every hour.

Co-workers- old, angry, and want you to buy stuff their kid is selling.

Boss- rich, on vacation, and doesn’t know your name

Copier- watch office space

Your starting salary- 30,000 isn’t bad to start right? Now subtract 30% for taxes and insurance. You’re down to 21,000 split up into into 24 bi-monthly payments of 875. Now subtract rent, utilities, student loan payments (bet you’re glad you took out extra to go to cabo now!), and other various life expenses (food, gas, shampoo) and you should be making -2,000 a year!!

Health insurance- costs hundreds of dollars a month and guess what you get to pay for half. Do you know what co-pay, coinsurance, deductable, and pre-existing condition means? They mean even though you give us thousands of dollars a year if you get sick you have to pay for it!!

401K- Where your money goes to die, and your company no longer matches your investment.

Lunch- Can’t afford it, or vending machine corn chips.

Your Computer – is being watched.

Smoking- now the best part of your day.
