    How much student debt did you get and what degrees did you get? Any reasonable degree and as long as you didn’t just waste time at college for 10 years on a bachelors, you should be completely fine.

      “should be” doesn’t account for the realities of the hiring process, the intense credential inflation, or being positioned well enough to take advantage of opportunities when they arise.

      People didn’t go out and get useless degrees, they were trained for fields that were rendered obsolete by the time they graduated and are facing intense competition with absurd requirements.
