The prices are lower for community colleges and higher for private and for-profit colleges but the out of state four-year college is a pretty typical experience for most people taking this path.$150,000 is a lot of money for a young adult to be playing around with especially when students are taking on debt to fund the expense, but most don’t look at a college degree as a frivolous purchase, it’s an investment that will produce strong returns over a working career.The data still backs this up, the cost of a college degree has increased significantly but just by the numbers it is still a good investment with the typical college graduate earning $650,000 more than the typical high school graduate over the course of their according to Pew Research Center.But just because something is a good investment doesn’t mean that there aren’t other better investments available.#howmoneyworks #career #collegeEdited By: Andrew GonzalesMusic Courtesy of: Epidemic SoundSelect Footage Courtesy of: Getty ImagesFor sponsorship inquiries, please contact sponsors@worksmedia.groupAll materials in these videos are for educational purposes only and fall within the guidelines of fair use.

The Truth About "The Great Resignation" - How Money WorksSign up for my newsletter https://compoundeddaily.com 👈You have no doubt seen news headlines and other videos about “The Great Resignation” accompanied by equally alarmists statistics like 40% of people are about to quit their job and April alone saw over 4 million people hand in their resignation.Now this news could be incredibly frightening or liberating to you depending on whether you are a stressed out business owner or soulless corporate automaton respectively, but before you read too much into it (or worse yet base major career decisions off of it) you should know the full story.So is this a serious event in the landscape of employer employee relationships?

The Great Depression Explained | How Money Works

The Great Depression ExplainedDuring the 1920s, America was thriving. National wealth had doubled from the year 1920 to 1929, over 12 million households purchased radios, and electric refrigerators became widely available. The Ford Model T revolutionized travel, places such as motels, grocery stores, and movie theaters were now easily accessible, and large scale automobile companies created thousands of new jobs. Americans began moving into cities, people didn’t have to sew their own clothes, and citizens all across America began buying the same brands of food, listening to the same music, and doing the same dance (the Charleston). This became known as the “Roaring 20’s”Disposable incomes rose, families had more money, and everyone including line workers, janitors, the ultra rich, and even banks using consumer’s deposits started pouring money into the stock market. At a time with no Robinhood or Charles Schwab, investors had to visit brokerages in person to buy stocks.
