Wal-Mart's Ad Campaign...what do you think?

This doesn't have anything to do with the original post (sorry), but I am curious about this statement:

And I'm getting a master's degree because a BA in psychology just doesn't cut it so I have to take on more debt.

What line of work did you hope to enter with this particular major? I think that is one of the big questions that every college student needs to consider before entering college and declaring a major. Some majors are simply not going to be in areas where there is a lot of job demand.

I am not pointing fingers, I promise, but I was just curious. I majored in Textile Management. That was a silly thing to do because after one year as a management trainee in a textile mill, I was laid off. There was no where for us to go. They laid off every person who had entered the training program when I did. I had to take a minimum wage job in a bank and work my way up in order to survive. My degree helped, but it certainly was not a ticket for me for an easy ride.

I think Sam Walton's intention was originally good, but his plan has not been as successful as he probably envisioned.
