$$$ --- What We Actually Care About --- $$$

• The average high school graduate will earn approximately 1.3 million dollars in their lifetime
• Compared to someone with a Bachelors that grosses nearly 2.3 million on average
• Even a Associates degree holder, after only 2 years of college, will make 15 thousand dollars or more then a high school diploma recipient

Importance of an Education

• Achieving a college degree will increase someone’s marketability as a professional.
• Many employers will soon require that their workforce has additional education.
• During economic downturns, the likelihood of a college graduate with a degree of losing a job next to a high school graduate is decidedly improbable.
• College changes people in that they transpire to be “more productive” as a result of continued education.
