“I also think that, like the value of a college education is is somewhat overrated. You know, and I think it’s to to too many people actually spend four years, accumulate a ton of debt, and then don’t they often don’t have useful skills that they can apply afterwards.
“And I think I have a lot of respect for people who work with their hands. And we need electricians and plumbers and carpenters and you know that’s that’s a lot more important than having incremental poli– political science majors, I think.
“So I think we should not have this idea that that to be successful you need to have a four-year college, that that is simply not true.” – Elon Musk, who has two degrees from the University of Pennsylvania, one from the prestigious Wharton School.
