$100,000 for a College Education That Fails You
From 2011.
James Altucher has written a great article on the 10 things he did not learn in college, but should have. I wish 4 million college-bound high school seniors would read it every year. (Over half never graduate.)
I have been writing about this for over 30 years. It’s nice to see a few people who have caught on.
It starts in public school kindergarten.
Altucher offers this list of things he never learned in college:
1. How to Program
2. How to Be Betrayed
3. Self-Sabotage
4. Dinner Parties
5. Networking
6. Politics
7. Failure
8. Sales
9. Negotiation
10. Happiness
All are good thing to know about. These are crucial: #5, #8, and #10.
