Giving some arguments why college is complete cope if ur a incel
1. Low ceiling
At most ull be making 100-200k a year and that’s assuming everything goes perfect (you have optimal grades, you get hired to a good job, you don’t get fired, etc)
Ik niggas making 100-200k in a month Letalone in a year and ur not doing that shit from any 9-5
And along with this you also don’t have financial control meaning trying to hard max, traveling the world/geomaxxing, etc etc will be harder
2. Huge life quality minn
Not only will the 4 years ur in college be the worst years of your life but after college you will now be 300k in debt (with accruing interest) but even if evrything goes well you will be working a 9-5 the rest of your life just retirecelling with no hope of any actual life quality
3. Debt
My uncle is 40 making really good money and still owes thousands and thousands of dollars to his school and still paying it off till this day.
Just imagine for the next 20-40 years of your life every single dollar you make isn’t even truly yours
4. No job stability
People constantly make the argument that atleast ull make stable money unlike being an entrepreneur but this is just not true in modern day. Layoffs are happening like crazy. There is no such thing as job security, the moment your business you work at wants more investments they will lay you off. The moment you start performing a little weaker they will bring on a new hire. The moment they can find a way to replace your job with a robot ur gone.
even though entrepreneurship isn’t guaranteed money either once you do start making money your salary is basically uncapped and 1 good month or year can make up for multiple bad months if you know good money management and most people who go from rich to broke is usually due to trying to expand faster than you can handle or just constant years of bad financial or business decisions
5. Won’t retire till your 60-70
In fact statistically speaking most people will just never end up retiring but of the percent that do I’ll do it extremely late in life when basically nothing even matters much anymore
6. No more coworker brutality
You choose who you work with so if you are tired of foid brutality you can finally escape it
7. No guarunteed jobs
Just imagine going hella into debt to get a college degree just for you to not get hired. Now your 300k in debt working at McDonald’s dead end job having to pay rent as well as pay off a ropefuel ammount of money. Now I don’t know the percent of people who never end up getting jobs after college i doubt its very high and it could be due to them not socializing or making connections but still it happens

Responding to common counter arguments
1. But its low chance ull succeed as a entreupreneur
That is true but the risk is mainly within the first 1-3 years after the 3rd year your chance of success is significantly higher and most businesses are profitable statistically (not necessarily high profits)
2. But it’s stressful
Yes as an entrepreneur it is very stressful and there’s lots of things you need to learn if you want to succeed but a few years of stress for a life of success beats working till age 80.
3. It’s risky
Yes entrepreneurship is significantly riskier than a 9-5
but it’s also significantly more rewarding than a 9-5. It’s not for everyone if all you want is a livable life and a guaranteed income then a career is for you but if ur open to possibly failing and have nothing to lose (incels have nothing to lose) then entrepreneurship might be the move
4.High startup costs
This is just obviously not true. It depends on which kind of business your starting and whether your doing it online or wanna start small vs a brick and mortar building. A lot of online businesses will cost very little money all you’ll need is a website and supply for whatever your selling
5. You need hella skills
This is again factually false. I have multiple friends who own businesses and their each making upwards of 10-100k a month and their college dropouts with pretty much no skills
The only thing they learned really is marketing but that was after they had already been making good money from their business.
Yes some businesses need high skill and high barrier to entry but those aren’t the kind of businesses you want to start anyways unless your already rich
Now I’m not trying to glorify entrepreneurship or demonize a 9-5 this isn’t like how TikTok gurus make it seem but atleast personally for me I don’t see a college career worth it in comparison to entrepreneurship
