You can tell this is an ancient meme because it prices college at 4 years at $9,000 per year instead of 5 years at $30,000 per year 😆

In Switzerland, apprenticeship is the standard for a good middle class income. It’s a win-win situation for all involved and if you later feel like you want to go further in your career, there’s a “master” training for your profession, which is considered by employers as equivalent to a master degree from an university. I’m not sure why such a system is not more popular in other countries.
I have to strongly disagree here. It was the case until neoliberalism hit hard on the country. From the middle 90s, the apprenticeship isn’t the standard to a good living anymore. We have roughly half of the households which are poor or near powerty. If the apprenticeship was a gold standard, it would not be the case. Teenagers learned it very well as they prefer to choose to study even after an apprenticeship.
Everything has took an exponential price hike. Healthcare insurance, rent, food, energy and more skyrocket and living is more and more difficult if you don’t have a tertiary diploma.
