    Degrees are cool if U are planning on being an attorney or doctor. Other then that I think learning the trade hands-on is better these days. I actually hire people at my job and we usually look at the person who has the experience rather then the one with the degree.

    If that's true they had to be white.

    I couldn't see a black person doing anything like that.

    Unless it was one of those deals like GM used to do before they went bankrupt by offering people lump sums to take an early retirement.

    If a company does that, then the smartest thing to do is take the money because you know they're getting ready to start laying people off

    Anybody check out that "Almighty debt" Black in America special on CNN.

    ? was depressing as hell watching dude trying to get a job and not getting any hiring offers.

    They had 2 other stories on there too that seemed to be there for comic relief.

    They were real slick about it, but those were some "C'mon Son...you can't be serious type of stories."

    One story was about a kid who is starting off with $16,000 in student loan debt...in his first year...to study acting.

    The other was a couple who thought they could work something out with the bank after missing 26 mortgage payments.

    They said their lawyer told them it was a 50/50 chance that they'd be able to keep their home.

    SMH at the lawyer getting their hopes up like that
    .

    WTF Im suprised they were even still in the house, SMFH@ even thinkin they would have a chance.

    I honestly think CNN featured them just to make fun of them on the low.

    I mean, what is there to work out after not making a payment in over 2 years?

    Not a damn thing, I seen somethin like that MSNBC where they had some group up in Boston that was supposedly helpin people save they homes. Like when the bank people come thru to EVICT you call them and they have like a Sit In at ur house or whatever. Man that ? was crazy, Im thinkin like has this ever worked before?

    This recession is no ? JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The homeless population is growing non-stop in NYC, some subway stations look like refugee camps here. All my NYC people know what the ? I'm talking about, ? is truly getting disgusting out there. If NY is hit this bad, I would hate to see what it looks like in the South.

    The real sad part is ? is going to get waaaaay worse. Food and energy prices will be thru the roof and unfortunately the job outlook will not get any better. I dont care who is in office.
