Honestly, i think its just boomer and tradie cope. tradies/boomers are insecure about their lack of intellectual status and now that the white collar market is in a crisis they finally have an opportunity to talk shit about academia and doompost

I like the math and stats aspect of economics, thats why i prefer it over business.
>>
>>538746580
>Economics degrees are useless at getting a job
so is every degree useless in the job market unless its engineering, law or medicine?
because thats what the boomers say too
>>
>>538747050
My friends who got engineering degrees couldn't find jobs outside of retail.

I'd say medicine is the only safe one.

Lawyers can't find jobs either.

this is only safe because of government and pharma gatekeeping.
according to /pol/ no one can get jobs, not even engineers and economists.

No, econ is pretty good for business-y type jobs

You get jobs with family connections, no degree is going to get you a job.

Somewhat. If you want to just go get an MBA, then it's fine. If you're looking to start a career in business just with an undergraduate degree you'd be better off majoring in business administration. You would be much better off majoring in something like Accounting, Finance, or Mathematics with a heavy emphasis on Mathematical Finance.

MBAs are useless and so are business degrees.

>business just with an undergraduate degree
i got an undergraduate degree in business from a reputable university but couldnt land a job due to a lack of work experience. i think a masters no matter if eceonomics or business and some internships would materially improve my job prsopects but i dont know. in the US a masters is usually not expected but in Germany it very much is. germcucks love their certificates and titles

Economics is easily the most prominent major with student athletes.
>>
They are meme degrees that basically pretend there a hundred layer of complexity to what ultimately amount to a very simplistic illusion borne of convenience. Most truly effective economic policies can be reduced to "dont act like a disingenuous piece of shit and actually manage your stuff with the intent of keeping it viable in the long term, because stability, predictability and ease of reproductibility is better than not having some". As in, basic fucking logic that is meant to be reapplicable, which become eldritch semantical nonsense whenever (((they))) et al get their greedy, slimy paws into the game. Hell the entire idea of a centralized currency backed by physical material is just that, yet another layer of bullshit we now believe is absolutely required for shit to work, when in reality the worth of a currency is based solely on its usability, and these bullshit layers ironically strip it of its inherent worth by making it lose "value" over time via inflation.

Its basically a field of "study" that just exist to legitimize fractional banking, but I wont deny that some of their knowledge has worth and is reapplicable, alas not as is since it comes with bullshit joined at the hip.

1. The wages of trade jobs are already falling because every Zoomer got psyoped into "just do trades bro" similar to how Millennials got told "just do college bro".

2. As more and more people are laid off, they will all flood those trade jobs and the wages will drop even more.

probably the most honest welder on the face of the earth
>>
>>538750434
Short Summary

The video explains that most welding salaries in the U.S. are lower than people claim, and online discussions often exaggerate earnings.

Key points:

Most non-union welders earn about $16–27/hour, depending on the region, while union jobs generally pay $30–48+/hour, especially in northern states.
Higher pay comes from specialized skills (pipe welding, steam fitting, certifications) and often requires travel, long hours, or working in expensive cities.
Claims of earning $200k–400k per year are rare and often ignore high expenses such as travel, lodging, fuel, and taxes.
Beginners or welders with only basic MIG skills earn the least and are increasingly threatened by automation and robotics.
The best ways to increase income are to learn multiple welding processes (MIG, TIG, Stick), earn certifications, gain experience, and consider relocating to higher-paying areas.
The author encourages realistic expectations, continuous learning, and avoiding schools that promise unrealistically high salaries.

Bottom line: Most welders earn modest wages, while high incomes are achievable only through specialization, experience, union work, and often significant personal sacrifice.

Wages in the US are so pathetically low. If you look at the REAL cost of living, we're poorer than some actual 3rd world countries.

Paco the Welder from Mexico unironically has a better life than John the Welder from Tennessee
>>
>>538750994
None of this is true.

Even minimum wage employees in blue states are horrible people. They're richer than the aristocrats anywhere else.
>>
>>538750715
>>538750994
For example, I remember a Mexican anon that I talked with on here, and he said that he earns $4200/month as a lawyer in Mexico, and it's actually not uncommon. Like, I bet an American Zoomer lawyer actually earns only 50% more than that but has to pay 5x more for everything.
>>
>>538751127
>Even minimum wage employees in blue states are horrible people.

What does this mean? Dollar General MANAGERS in the US in rural areas earn $14/hour. MANGERS.


>They're richer than the aristocrats anywhere else.

Wrong! Minimum wage Europeans earn more per hour and their effective tax rates are only slightly more.

Sociology is a meme degree, but at least you can get a government gibs job as a social worker. Economics is beyond worthless.

I'm an American from a shithole red state. I started at $11/hour. I wouldn't even be legally allowed to be paid that rate in Germany, a country where transportation costs $80/month for a bus pass and not $800/month for car shit.
>>
>>538751450
>Economics is beyond worthless.
how come? id love to hear your reasoning

>>538751551
But only the super well connected can get those jobs in Germany.

>>538746213
All degrees are a meme.
Traditionally in White European homogeneous societies they served as a ticketed gate keeper to certain professions. Now they've been repurposed as a-levels or whatever your nations equiv is, a kind of mass psychological washing of normnoids, women and brown wannabe Western world participants into desirable economic integers for the technocratic post industrial society.

>>538751629
Minimum wage in Germany is $15/hour. Minimum wage in my state is still $7.25/hour and there ARE workers getting paid $9/hour

MBA: Mediocre But Arrogant

Three of my past maang3rs had MBAs and couldn't lead worth a fuck. I told one they should have asked for a refund on her degree and got sent to HR for insubordination, which ultimately led me to find a newer job with more competent (and male) leadership
>>

The only job you can get is as an academic teaching other students your useless discipline.

>>538746213
Economics is a pseudoscience invented by Capitalists to justify their own bullshit. no different than Theology was/is to the Church.
>>
>>538751638
Degrees nowadays are just a filter for lazy, spoiled employers to filter through all of the desperate impoverished saps from getting a better job. And now those fucks are trying to automate those jobs away, leading to a permanent underclass of grunts to work 18 hour shifts and live 10 to a studio
>>
>>538751815
That just means German companies won't hire people unless they have extreme connections because the cost of hiring is too high.
>>
>>538750994
Same here. Its because all our money goes to Israel, the third world and Poland

>>538751939
For example, the biggest example is translators. Even before the advent of AI, there were Google Translator style MLs that started making translators go from actually translating to just mending translations outputted by the ML.

Now, those jobs are totally gone basically. One translator was saying that they have to work like 12 hour days to get the same pay as they got before. And I fucking guarantee that the cost of professional translations has not gone down, so it's just these asshole translation companies making record profit.


But anyhow, that's what will happen with everything. There's only so much demand for X product. If productivity increases, then less workers are needed, then less pay is needed. The middleman kikes just suck up the excess profit.
>>
>>538746213
extremely. but it helps you land a good job and make connections, to hopefully start something

True but the recruitment wagoids are also not immune from the competency crisis.

Its easy to see how it starts:
> Niggerdo niggerbo's banging the bongo and 4 chord guitar is just as valid music as your 20 years study on the violin to play Bach
>woman shitting in a bed is just as valid visual art as your 1500 year old asthetic representation on the ceiling of that Cathedral
>my degree is just as valid as yours
>my ability to maintain this complex system is just a proficient as yours

And just like that everywhere returned to ape; true regression to the bench mark as its set by our lowest common denominators.

Modern Economics degrees are actually just 'Capitalism Studies' and are pretty worthless. Everything will be adjusted and changed to make it fit a desired outcome.
One of my redpilling experiences was going to university during the financial crisis. My housemate studied Economics and had two versions of the same textbook; a second hand one from before 2007 and the newer updated one. You would not believe the amount of changes in something that was being presented as objective. The entire chapter on derivatives and CFDs was literally just gone in the newer one
