Colledge cost me $40K and I have made more than $160K in 2 years after Colledge working. I have made an 33% ((40/120) * 100) on my investment in myself and its still growing. The growth of my investment in myself is infinite and way bigger than any other investment.

The _price_ of college is only a small fraction of the _cost_ of college.

And yes, I learned this in an economics class... in college.
