My wife is currently going to college for a economics degree, I have argued that it is a useless degree, that she will never find a job with this degree. The argument always ends in a screaming match. Is there any advice anyone has to help me convince her?!! Is this worth the money I am paying for her tuition?!?

Post her tits or gtfo, nigger
This is a loaded question. On the scale of possibilities economics isn't the worst, it's somewhere in the middle, and better since she's a woman and can find a govt job. What is her current situation?
Just tell her no.
but you're wrong
Depends on the school she attends.
Fpbp
the argument should be whether she should go to college at all
the answer is obviously no
Her current situation is working at Starbucks. I am worried because alot of her Starbucks friends all have degrees but are still working at Starbucks
What degree should i do for max cash and office sluts? Law, finance, what?
>paying her tuition
Holy shit you’re a bitch why would you pay for a degree you think is worthless dumbass? Put your foot down and be a man
this photo is so retarded. Someone took data from notes to input in a computer to create charts and so on, then someone prints out those charts only to hand it over to a woman who proceeds to put data back into computer.
Marketing & statistics
That’s what clients give professionals
>I am paying for her tuition
Oh no no no no no no no
fpbp
It is worth it. Business is a practical field. Every company, no matter what they do, is engaging in business. They need economists, macro or micro, and she doesn't even need to do economics just because that's her major.
Talpiot program is the way kikes get to the top of marketing and everything else they rise in. Search Brendon O'Connell and watch his videos. Kikes are the enemies of all mankind fuck them and their puppets.
Economics is a pretty good degree.
is she going to grad school? doing lots of mathematical modeling? a little software mixed in? if the answer to these is yes, she'll probably make more money than you. A lot more.
I paid for my ex wife to go to college. Don't waste your money. You are going to pay alimony and her student debt. Learn for my mistake.
Unless shes some exceptional person who can market her economic views and sell them to rubes shes making a massive mistake. Also if she isnt going to an ivy league school she shouldnt even kid herself that her degree in economics will mean anything to anyone. Is she Jewish? If not the degree is even more worthless.
I would say it depends on how much you're paying for it and where you're getting your degree from. If you're paying tens (or possibly hundreds) of thousands of dollars or you're going to a low ranked school, you are not getting your money's worth. All of the relevant info is online or accessible through pirated textbooks. All of the earning benefits are eaten up by costs and, more importantly, foregone wages. If you are at a top uni and you're getting your shit paid for, you're good. Do note that you are going to be programmed at every angle, and need to be very aware of the flaws in the arguments your profs give you.
t. econ major at a top level uni with costs covered by finaid (due to being poor as shit)
I have an econ degree. I currently work IT. You are right OP, its fucking useless. But.... She is a women, so she might have more opportunity as a diversity hire. I don't remember very many girls being into econ even just 6 years ago.
>Paying for tuition.
Tell her if she want to learn something, to pick up a book and read
>i am paying for her tuition
there's your problem
I have a lady friend who recently obtained her PhD in economics. She landed a cushy job at the Federal Reserve.
I don't understand what she spent the last six years working on, but it has something to do with interest rates.
Pathetic larp. If any of you believe this shit, you should be ashamed of yourselves and spend at least five years talking to real people.
>thing Im doing doesn't work
>hurr I'll keep doing it even more
>can anybody tell me how to do it even better too? then it'll work
i can tell you're the brains of the relationship
Econ is pretty useless. They are just going to parrot the state propaganda of fiat currency, endless debt, usury and other gay shit.
Economics is STEM tier. She’s right. My sister makes $150k working for the Treasury.
And women who finish college are generally better lifepartners because they’re disciplined enough to commit to it.
She's right, though. It is hard to be competitive for a cushy job without a degree.
Convince her to live within your current means or wageslave away to dig deeper into the dual income trap
You need a masters atleast to do that shit.
Absolutely /thread.
Why the fuck are you paying her tuition? If she wants to go so badly, put your foot down and say no, pay for it yourself.
Economics degree is in high demand because of capitalism, brainlet.
Imagine paying for your wife to be a careerist feminist whore. Do you buy your blue pills in bulk at Costco?
do what you will be best at crossed with what is most in demand
fpbp
stop paying her tuition you fucking pussy. this is your fault for letting her start this in the first place
Who cares. Your wife will be bred by some chad in sales that makes more than both of your coward asses.
What a great time to study economics. She is going to be cheating on you asap.
people with a B.S. in Economics from my school have a median salary of like 80 grand by the time they are 27 or 28, only about 5 grand lower the computer science and other engineering majors. so no its not worthless, at least not in california where I am. the degree itself though is mostly just to virtue signal to finance companies that you're not retarded at math
If you don’t have kids leave her
Why is she not raising your children?
I used my econ degree to go into the Air Force as an officer. I manage the teams that write/negotiate contracts. The benefits are great but you have to deal with moving every couple years, and occasionally being deployed to the middle east.
If you don't want it for life, it's very easy (after proving yourself for a few years) to just go work for Boeing or Lockheed Martin instead.
Yeah see that’s the tradeoff. College educated women are generally more loyal, but they’re still women. It happens by default.
A well educated women who makes GOOD money is going to pair off with a well educated man who makes GREAT money. Since such guys are in short supply they’re “loyal” by default.
In OP’s case things are worse because not only is he giving away his resources like a beta to a woman, he’s pretty much financing her fiscal independence from him and inevitable cuckolding with a richer guy.
i'm trying to become an Auditor yet i already feel like killing myself
is this normal?
Economics is basically an applied maths degree depending on the program.
>At least Calculus 2 is required and for the more rigorous programs you have take (calc 1-3, diff equations, linear algebra, statistics, and more) basically the same requirements as an engineer
>Accounting courses
And then you get to take your course micro/macro econ courses which are basically math classes anyways.
After a rigorous economics education you should be capable of doing any white collar job
Most companies don't like veterans though, so please do not put it on your resume. The merchant cast hate the martial cast. I speak from experience, I have had interviews from hell which usually involved them asking about PTSD. I haver a BS in Econ, and it has not served me well. I should have gone CS.
Weird, same here.
Op, being able to tell stories with data is a valuable skill. Tell her to minor in CS or at least learn SQL. She can walk into a business intelligence analyst role and be head and shoulders above everyone else on day 1.
Even without knowing SQL to start, my salary went from 40k as a jr. BI Analyst to 76k as a sr. inside of three years. Known some very talented women, too.
Tl;dr don't scream at your wife for her earning potential, it's not an issue. Instead scream at her for not having dinner ready.
For real?
Theres no demand for shitposting on Yas Forums.
>My wife is currently going to college for a economics degree, I have argued that it is a useless degree
And you're right. you married an idiot. Enjoy paying off those loans
Send her to culinary school
Economics is an arts degree. Finance is a technical degree. If she wants to be in that world she should do finance, and preferably at a school that facilitates getting your licenses.
this.
if she goes to grad school especially, and has a mathematical modeling focus, she'll be making a six figure salary.
yup. this covers all bases. some programs too my like my school have more math intense ones too usually billed as 'Quantitative Econ' or some such which is the same thing pretty much as normal econ but with real analysis courses, modern algebra, etc.
talk to her about it again. once she starts screaming at you, drag her over your knee and spank her bare ass until she is sobbing and limp.
She'll respect you for putting her in line and finally acting like a real man.
If your wife ever screams at you outside of the bedroom, you’ve already failed as a husband as a man. You should either kill yourself, or get some balls.
>College educated women are generally more loyal
It’s just because they tend to be middle class and were more likely to have been brought up in stable two parent families
If only you knew how realtime things really are hacked
I'm double majoring for a degree in engineering technology and a degree in project management. Maybe she should double major with something like accounting?
Economics, the "Queer Science"
Ooooy veeeey the goyim know.
If you are paying for her economics degree she really should just look to change her degree.
She’s a woman she’ll be fine.
Depends entirely on the school. If she's going to a top ten school for econ, she'll have a good chance at getting a job. Otherwise, she'll probably end up in something like sales or whatever when she goes looking for a job.
OP is a engineer faggot that thinks anything that isn't a STEM degree is worthless paper and you will never find a job.
Economics is alright, she will either get into government, private firm, or a bank. Way better than a humanities's degree, less demanding than a doctor/law, and fuck business and STEM.
Only downside is the slight possibility she becomes a socialist/pro state fag (I need more of that "state" daddy), either way, as a true based and red pilled man, you should either stop paying her education, or help her out introducing the Austrian school to her, and preventing her from becoming a BIG GOVERNMENT type of economist (Keynesian economist deserve to be put in a cross)
Either way I hope you get cucked just like any other STEM fagg by his boss when she finally finishes college. See ya.
I honestly hope you're just making this post for the lulz
But realistically speaking females aren't exactly rational she's thinking about it emotionally, like how she could be working in a nice office sorting papers, and making deals like they do on tv, etc you get the point, you're the man and you have the power to stop this if not you have everything coming your way honestly.
