    A little privileged there to be specifying jobs that require tens of thousands of dollars of education as a prerequisite, no?

      Dude that’s half the point. Realtors are paid so much and it doesn’t even require/take much. I never thought I’d expect people defending realtors.

        Oh, I don’t give a crap about the realtors. I’m just not a fan of STEM being placed above other fields when it’s inaccessible to people without either having been born into money or taking on substantial debts.

          It’s just what came to mind. Teachers, trades, technicians, whatever. Realtor takes like a couple week course or something.

          And in case people misread me, yes I think there should be good jobs without post secondary. Realtors are excessive and they fight to keep their effective monopoly and effective collusion.
