I'm a pharmacist with a doctorate in pharmacy. I have a great job, luckily not in retail. The field is saturated, but luckily not as bad as physician assistant and nurse practitioner is about to be. I can pay my loans easily and have good money left over. I would do something different if I could go back, maybe more in computer science or finance, but I'm happy where I am.

Love professional drug pushers!!!
 
BS in Finance, but I am a sysadmin now. Paid off my student loans about 7 years ago. And if you think student loans suck, wait until you have to pay for child care. That is brutal.
 
Cop. I have a bachelor's degree. Zero college debt.

Army paid for my degree.
 
I have a GED and own my own Bjj academy

Yeah.. i've had some fun and what i learned will stay with me but the ride must end at some point..

Yeah, we had some uzbeks to.. it's a free market.. when you cannot longer compete it's time to see yourself out.. and yeah, electricians were mostly swedes..

What are you doing instead?

I'm a Philosophy Major, who works IT.

I actually dislike it very much, but it pays more than "Philosopher" and in 5 years I'm retired so there's that.

I have no debt beyond the $900 currently on a credit card for buying frivolous shit.

A degree in business administration, I work with accounting!

I belong to the top 90 percentile when it comes to income, which truth be told doesn’t mean much since Sweden’s progressive taxes and efforts to combat wage distribution are very successful.

The difference between the average income and the 90 percentile is only circa $2,200 per month.

Wow that is so strange. Seriously.
 
IT
Double majored in Criminal Justice and Psychology
Currently working on a Network Systems degree

Chapter 33 GI Bill paid for the first degree and the WI GI Bill will pay for the IT degree
 
I work as a finance manager for a large company and have bachelor's in psychology. I regret choosing that field, but the degree did get my foot in the door so it definitely paid off. My first job out of college required at the very least a bachelor's, but it didn't have to be in a field related to the work (accounting). I went to a relatively inexpensive state school and was fortunate that my parents were able and willing to pay for my tuition.

Was a construction worker for few years then went to trade school to get electrical license

Now i hate everything about construction and probably will go work in a warehouse
 
I work in business administration for a scooter/wheelchair distributor. I have Degrees in Criminal Justice and Computer science. Was going to go into something law enforcement related but just before graduation realized it is not worth it. Finished that degree and then got a computer science degree. I have about 40,000 in debt from them. Don’t use the criminal justice degree and hardly need the computer science degree for what I do now.
 
Physician.
Board certed in my specialty and will get certed in two sub specialties within the year.
In school forever.
Have some debt. making minimum payments under PAYE and counting on that PSLF to hopefully wipe it out in the next few years.
Income is high. No problems paying bills. Dumping over $100k into retirement a year. Life is good. Would recommend.
 
I have a degree in political science, took on a pretty good amount of debt to get my degree and it was daunting, especially due to a difficult job market, when entering the work force. I went to the best public school in my state, which isn’t saying much, but still got a pretty good value education as far as these things go.

I’m an executive in biotech and make what most people would consider to be a lot of money. I live in a very expensive city (Boston), so while I’m well off, cost of living does bring me back down to a comfortable upper middle class lifestyle. My degree isn’t applied in my work, but without it I never would have had the opportunity to succeed on the path I’ve taken. Debt is paid, Ive got enough experience in my field to never have to worry about finding work, and I had a really good time in college. I don’t want to be doing anything else, so I don’t think I’d do it differently if I had the chance.
 
BS in Finance (summa cum laude)...work in corporate finance for a large company...never had any student loans...

Double major for undergrad: business and Econ.
Masters in international commerce and policy.
No debt. Half my bachelors and all my master was through Post 9/11 GI Bill. Other half of my bachelors I did while I was in.
My job pertains to my masters degree. I work for a University in Export compliance.
Moving back to DC so I might ditch this career and try and find something in the start up realm. High paying and equity seem good right about now.

Currently work part time for Nasa in the advanced propulsion division (apd)

I'm a younger than you guys(early 20s). I'm into the last months of my final semester right now and my last exams are coming up. I'm doing Economics and Mathematics. I have no debts of any sort as everything was paid for by my parents. I've had done internships at a place for the past two summers and they're offering me a place after graduation, so that's where I'm going to start when I'm no longer a student.
