My plumber charges $150/hr with zero debt. I have a Master's and huge loans. Who's the fool?

I called a plumber today. He charged me $200 for 30 minutes of work. He laughed and said he's been making money since he was 20 and owns two houses now. Meanwhile, I bought the "you must go to college" lie, sitting here with $80k in student loans and a mediocre office salary. Are we all being scammed by the education system? Is a degree even worth the paper it's printed on anymore? #StudentLoans #CollegeScam #BlueCollar #Trades #Economy
