NYU degrees are pretty useless...:hmm:
People don't go to NYU to get jobs.  People go to NYU because their dad is rich and they want to party in New York.

My father isn't particularly reach. :hmm:

He reached your mom, though, and she has money, right?

That's sufficient, I think.

Well no, they had long been split up by the time anyone in my family went to NYU.

Why would I care about you?
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

That just breaks my heart.

It should
Because there is always work at the PLAN.

That satisfies my world view.

Unfortunately your world view involves more nuclear exchanges than some us are prepared to tolerate.
The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists.

A conflicting data point. Anyway, it wouldn't be about me as I didn't go to NYU.

Her: "To get, or not to get my Masters, that is the question?"

Me: "Which masters programs are you looking into?"

Her: "I've been a well rounded person. I've been missing my music skills lately. I like to express my emotions and feelings down on paper and maybe make a song out of it. I think I played clarinet, but I would find piano or guitar more useful."


Other people:
"GET IT!!!!!! you're still young with plenty of time"

"Get it!!! That's going to be good for you!! I'm getting mine:)"


You can learn guitar and piano for free on youtube. She's making an excuse to crawl back in the womb.

Her (today): "I'm so excited right now, I finally know what I'm going to do! I'm applying to go to Grad school at Sacred Heart University and get my certification as a reading specialist/English Teacher. I'm so happy! :D"

Anyway, I think it isn't sporting to make fun of this woman. She's clearly in a confused place and mocking her is like shooting fish in a barrel.

Fish who consistently  find themselves in barrels deserve to be shot.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Well have at it. Sounds dull to me though.
