All my friends went to uni, and most of them now are just in HR or recruitment, middleman parasite-type jobs, they earn ok money, but their jobs can be wiped with either ai or the usual restructuring.
For professions like medicine etc of course, you have to go to uni , but it depends on the profession.
Conversely, my good friend who didn't go to university became a self-employed hairdresser, had a Porsche by the time his was in his early 20s , has a flat in a prime area and has no debt, other than a mortgage, which will be paid off probably in another 9 years.
his main economic threat now isnt ai, it's the endless Turkish barbers that have popped up everywhere in the UK, that are basically money laundering fronts
he now plans of taking a massage course and making sport massage his side hustle
