Lifetime earnings and degrees - how do they impact your personal income?

After all is said and done, the real reason people pursue a higher education is money, or personal income related. How does this relate to earning more degrees, attending graduate school, or getting an MBA?

Well, the correlation between degrees & income is pretty solid, looking at this page which details earnings by degree type, we see that the statistics all line up in agreement with the hypothesis.

Other than that, if you believe the hype, why not join in on the fun? Take a look out our college reviews page - or browse some of the master's degrees listed here.

Perhaps you don't believe the hype. Perhaps you are a skeptic.

Ok, fair enough. Think about this for a moment though before tossing aside your goals and dreams of more money, greater respect from your collegues, and a place in history:

Aside from earning more degrees, is there *any* statistically proven method of raising your personal income over the course of your life time?

Nope. None that we know of. This, and this reason alone, accounts for the continued, and ever increasing popularity of college education. As people live longer, more and more will stay in school for ever increasing periods of time.

Do you really want to be the only one of your friends who is NOT making six figures by the time you are in your thirties? We thought so. :)
