In this brief YouTube dialogue, Speaker A asks about the value of attending university, prompting Speaker B to inquire about the listener's personal desire to go to university. Speaker A then seeks clarification on the potential benefits or upsides of a university education. The exchange sets up a discussion on the motivations, costs, and perceived returns of higher education.
What are your thoughts on university?
Do you want to go to university?
Well, it depends on what the upsides are.
If your parents want to pay for it 100%, I say do it. The problem right now, if you look at the cost of university versus salary, it didn't keep up. So the ROI of getting a degree is not there. Ask me how many resumes I look at when I hire somebody. How many? Zero! Dude, I've never looked. I talk to the person, I look at what they've done, ask about their experience. I don't care what university they went to. Most of my engineers I hire, they're self-taught. If you know what you want to do, just go do it.
