Maybe the academic didnt fit their needs.....as I go to the fridge in the house I own.....complete with bad plumbingBombing out implies failing academically. A lot of guys who were failing academically left school and got trades - which is the definition of bombing out.
Our teachers told us that these guys were all going to struggle their entire lives, we'd be much better off than them on account of us staying in school etc etc etc.
In reality, the complete opposite has happened.
With what money?
This has always been the problem as I see itBombing out implies failing academically. A lot of guys who were failing academically left school and got trades - which is the definition of bombing out.

The reason being, that with the loss of manufacturing the requirement for engineering, scientists etc has fallen dramatically, so there are very few positions that require a degree.Bombing out implies failing academically.

Oh no doubt. I wasn't attacking plumbers at all - I wish I'd done what they did.Maybe the academic didnt fit their needs.....as I go to the fridge in the house I own.....complete with bad plumbing
The idea that a 19 year old uni student can buy a studio apartment even a decade ago is absolutely ludicrous. If you seriously think that, I can see why you have the opinion that you do.The banks? You probably could have got a studio apartment in a reasonable suburb for $200,000 back then. $30,000 deposit and a job would have been enough to get a loan.
Absolutely.This has always been the problem as I see it
If everyone was university educated who collects your garbage?
I agree completely. If I had my time again, I wouldn't do it.This has always been the problem as I see it

Dont do it anymore ........**** job

How can you go wrong, $1,500 pw and as much pizz as you can drink. ?why not?
Apparently plumbers make heaps.
Just no one actually wants to be one to make heaps. They just seem to be the go to for people to complain about. People that have never actually worked as one.
What the hell has that got to do with the price of fish...we're talking incomes hereWant to throw in the statistic of divorce in 30 years its probably more likely than fulfilling the banks expectation
Personally I think they are underpaid.How can you go wrong, $1,500 pw and as much pizz as you can drink. ?
See the funny part is that uni numbers are actually down for gen Z. Uni numbers peaked in 2010-2011 and have been on the decline ever since, true story.What about somebody that just finished uni now 2021? what advice?
The bit when it goes 70/30What the hell has that got to do with the price of fish...we're talking incomes here

Even better is these days look at what shopping centres at least in Perth are being redeveloped because its where people want to liveWell, maybe after you graduated and got a job you could have done it.
Firstly, if you live in Sydney or Melbourne, move to Brisbane or Adelaide.
Then, identify the best value outer ring suburb with potential and find a house that needs some work. In Brisbane these can be easily found for under $300,000, some are $250,000. Spend your weekends fixing it up and improving the property. Landscaping, painting inside and out, etc. You can't rely on capital growth alone. Improve the property yourself with your own labour and you will reap the rewards.
Ah yes, because grad jobs have been SO plentiful since the GFC.Well, maybe after you graduated and got a job you could have done it.

I was working as an employee electrician for a period in the 1990's.Electricians and Plumbers might as well be doctors as they make very high incomes. It is simply not truthful to say you couldn't afford to buy a house in a good area in the 80s.
I make more money doing instrumentation tubingwhy not?
