Thinking about going back to school to escape your dead-end job and secure remote work opportunities? This brutally honest video exposes seven university degrees that promise career success but deliver crushing student debt and limited job prospects instead. If you’re a career transitioner stuck earning low wages with long commutes, you need to know which degrees to avoid before making an expensive mistake. Learn why popular majors like psychology, general studies, and art history are oversaturated fields that rarely lead to the high-paying remote positions you’re seeking. Universities aggressively market these programs to adults looking for career changes, but the reality is harsh – most graduates struggle to find relevant employment that justifies their educational investment. Instead of falling for university marketing tactics, discover why trade schools, coding bootcamps, online certifications, and specialized training programs offer faster, more affordable paths to location-independent careers. This video breaks down the job market reality using a uselessness scale, revealing how universities profit from career confusion while graduates face unemployment. Perfect for anyone considering returning to college for a career change, these insights will help you make smarter educational decisions and avoid the trap of worthless degrees that won’t advance your remote work goals.
