In Finland it's almost common knowledge that university is a poor guarantee for wealth. I think on average in a blue collar job you can earn more and have easier time finding one (doctors being probably the only exception).

It seems to me that at least law school has been a poor investment for nearly a generation, and medical school is trending that way.

Engineering (traditional engineering), is a reliable paycheck education. My friends from Georgia Tech got good jobs even with bad grades.
