College is a business and they advertise to promote the business. You don't have to go to a 4 year college to learn the things a 4-year grad knows. Surprising they never advertised that or not. I'm a person that was convinced by the advertising that college was the most important thing for success but having attended and worked in a job that required the degree I've come up with a saying concerning college "Dumb people go to college and waste money, smart people know college is a waste of money and don't go" I know people will debate this but in my own experience people with degrees aren't much smarter than people without. Of course with all rules there are exceptions to the rule, doctors for example need to have a college degree because they need on the job training by people in the field and medical school offers that.
With all that said I wish I didn't waste money on college.
