Don't forget the unnecessary sports programs that provide absolutely no educational value. Over 95% of all college sports programs spend more than they make and are not self-sufficient.

Reply to College Tuition Has Outpaced Inflation by More Than 3x Over the Last 40 Years by ThePinkHulk
I've been saying this for years. The issue isn't people who want to pay back loans. The issue is affordability, and kids are being told they must go to college if they want a good job. But the absolute lack of oversight has allowed tuition to skyrocket while wages stagnate. My father and I both graduated from the University of Houston. When he went in the mid-90s, classes were $250 each. When I went in the mid-2010s classes were near $700 each. That's an average increase of 9% a year.
For this wondering, my father got his degree in his late 30s.

SCRA takes care of the rate

If the vehicle is financed, meaning you still owe the bank or credit union money, tell them immediately and show them a copy of your active duty orders. They must follow SCRA and MLA regulations.

Can we put an astrix next to NY since we know for a fact that many of those WS titles have issues. If we're calling for it on other teams, it's only fair that it applies to everyone

So your son has an ESOP I'm assuming? A company can't legally sell shares of stock at a discount publicly. Your son would be the owner of the shares, not you. Either way, best of luck to you. If you're looking for other investments, check out the MJ index.

I've been following Tesla since all they had was the Roadster and before Musk existed with Telsa. I always dreamed of buying one for myself, and I'm getting to the point where I might be able to afford an EV in the next 2 - 4 years. However, because of Musk, I will never buy a Tesla. There are plenty of other companies that will have EVs by the time I buy one.

Wouldn't be surprised if that happens 1Q. Hope you're hedging with something.

Well, seeing that Net Income is ways lower than total assets since NI is rolled into equity, that's even worse. Their effective tax rate is probably closer to 1 or 2% then.
