I have an Ivy League education. It was a weird mix of the most brilliant people I’ve ever met who worked their asses off to get there, many whom I’m still lifelong friends with, and some of the dumbest people I’ve ever met.
Not all bad people, but I remember some kids at Penn, and just thinking, Ive met this guy before, but he works in my hometown at the gas station and sold me weed. Same person, just different circumstances.
Really put into perspective how some people can just coast their entire lives. No real worries, always unlimited family money to fall back on. Money buys everything, degrees, presidencies, more money.
Ivanka was in my class. Trump also went there. Btw, neither of them “went to Wharton.” That specifically means you have a graduate degree from the Wharton business school. They both have undergrad degrees from UPenn, just like me, and none of us “went to Wharton”.
I’m in my 40s, still paying off my loans, and I operate arcade and pinball games for a living…. So yeah, super worth it. Jokes aside, I’m doing exactly what I want to be doing.
