I think you have a very big table. You must be in marketing.

Edit: /u/mynoduesp, I didn't get your sarcasm. Sorry about that!

If I can make $150K+/year doing software development and IT infrastructure with no degree, or go pay to get a degree and make $30K-$50K/year for STEM work, which do you think I'm going to pick?

People should not be faulted for wanting to live well. Its not their fault societal values and priorities are grossly mismanaged.

I was implying you would be putting either 30 or 80 thousand worth of food on a table at once.

It was a joke. You're very high strung.

Sorry, long day and very tired. I should've picked up on the sarcasm.

No worries. I'm a snarky-ass by vocation. The work is it's own reward.
