@heatherpommelman: How in the living world were you able to get all that money? It would be impossible to get that money by just working for it.. As a student I made $1.7K per month.

I paid nothing...

I didn't go
Work at McDonald's for about 5 years you'll probably make manager they make around $46500.

Actually the CIA pays 6 figures for former military advisers, gorilla warfare field officers and MPC dog handlers...

The contracting community pays around $1000 dollars a day for the same work an you only work half a year, every other year if you wish... depending on the contract.

Speaking farsi, tagalog, or russian can get you even more money. If you can't, well again... you could learn for free...
@AshStone23: Work as a programmer for Silicon Valley and you make $180.000.

It went from $6k to $8k per year in 1993-1996 or so. I made enough in my summer job to pay my way through so I graduated with no debt.

I'd say around $170,000 or so. Which is pretty much half what the actual cost was, due to scholarships I had.
My parents paid for it. I didn´t.❤

@Existentior: yes my Dad can afford it and even approve when I decided to study for the 2nd degree but I told him that I need to be independent and went to build things on my own and finally learn to earn while studying. I like the challenges and that was indeed a sort of soul searching. Even if he can pay my schooling and I still receive allowances from him. My dad is generous but if I deserve it I have to prove.
@jadenightbird: My family calls degrees useless. Different worlds, it seems.

@Existentior: awwp my dad just wants to prepare me and my ideas and that had met
