The only man who I would have ever remotely considered marrying didn't have a degree but was just as intelligent as someone with a degree and provided for us just fine. |
Well said. ITA. A college degree does not make the man. Cause there's tons of men out there wit college degrees that are still lazy as h*ll and treat their women like crap. Trust me I know from experience. My ex had a degree from a prestigious HBCU but he was the laziest self entitled a$$hole you'd ever meet.

I would consider any education level, as long as he has at least what I do to bring to the table, can hold a conversation without me having to roll my eyes and is well-traveled.

NO! My ex-wife had no aspirations to further her educational and professional development and I can see how it stagnated her.
If you're not willing to invest in yourself why would I?

Some of the richest people either dropped out of college, or never went. Same for intelligence.
Some of the people that went to school/college for the longest and/or majored in stupid ish are working entry level jobs.
Experience....matters now.
My dad is from the projects, started as a janitor with only a HS diploma....he worked his way up to a manager at Alabama Power making $210,000 a year. This is the same company he scrubbed toilets at....the company sent him to Duke.
I feel sorry for people who think college is the only way to reach success. They will be disappointed when they get outchea.

Absolutely! I need my man to be purpose driven, a man of action, intelligent, and self sustaining...with good credit. He needn't have a degree. I know sooooooooooo maaaaaaaannnnnnyyyyyy college grads, eye deep in student loans and other debts acquired during college, with a bachelors degree some with even masters, working entry level jobs, barely scratching the surface of survival and complacent as hell. Drive can't be learned, you're either born with it, or youre not, and no degree can dictate how far one goes in life.

If you get a PhD in Sociology or Social Work you can't really expect to be successful. If you are willing to study that many years for such a sh*tty degree, you might as well try Medical School.

going to college does not equal monetary. A degree / education is something that no one can take from you. It’s the experience, growth, parties , etc ... that can provide tools for life so that you can follow your bliss, “ follow your bliss you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for you, and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living. When you can see that, you begin to meet people who are in your field of bliss, and they open doors to you. I say, follow your bliss and don't be afraid, and doors will open where you didn't know they were going to be.” Campbell

If he's got ambition and isn't ignorant, I could but I chose to have a man with the papers.
