Sabri (from Nate Tilley's #heysabri series) answers Corey’s question about whether college is worth it. He states a clear negative view—calling college "one of the biggest scams"—arguing that degrees cost between ~$30k–$250k and often teach from instructors not practicing the careers students want. He recommends spending that money on practitioner-led courses/micro-degrees, and presents an illustrative two-person comparison claiming the course-trained individual will be far ahead three years after graduation.

Yo, what up Corey? Thank you for your question. You've written hey Sabri, what is your opinion on college? I believe that college is one of the biggest scams that exist today. Course providers and course creators get so much flack online in the guru space. But realistically, if you look at a college degree, depending on where you're doing it and where in the world you are, you're ranging anywhere from 30k up to 250k to learn from somebody who typically isn't doing what it is that you want to do when you finish that degree in the first place. If you took that same same sum of money that you would spend on college and you were to do micro degrees or you were defined courses in that space from actual practitioners with proven skills that are doing exactly what it is that you're doing. You take two individuals. One goes through the course route, the other one goes through the university system. The one that goes through the course route will be in a completely different place than that person three years after graduating from college.
