Bobby Bryant+Follow Is college still worth it… or have we been sold a lie? My neighbor’s son just graduated college. He’s 24, has $80,000 in student loans… and is working part-time at a coffee shop. ☕ His dad said, “At least he has a degree.” I said, “But does it do anything anymore?” Back in the day, a college degree meant something. It opened doors. It was your ticket to the middle class. Now? It feels like a very expensive piece of paper. Meanwhile, plumbers, electricians, and truck drivers are making six figures—and they didn’t spend four years in a lecture hall. So I’ll ask the question: 👉 Is college still worth it… or have we been sold a lie? I’m not saying education isn’t valuable. I’m asking if the system still delivers what it promises. If you’re a parent or grandparent, what did you tell your kids about college? And looking back—was it the right advice? #CollegeDebt #HigherEducation #StudentLoans #ParentingQuestions #EducationSystem #AmericanDream #CollegeWorthIt #RealLifeSkills #CareerPaths #ParentingAdvice #GrandparentWisdom #LifeAfterCollege76149Share
Michael Butler+FollowFaith + Farming = Real American RootsEver thought about how faith and farming are basically the OG power couple? In farm country, churches and farmers team up to do way more than just grow crops—they’re growing hope, resilience, and community. From sharing harvests with churches to fighting food waste and feeding neighbors, these partnerships are tackling big issues like hunger and food insecurity. Imagine churches hosting dinners with 'imperfect' veggies and teaching kids to cook fresh meals. When faith and farming join forces, everyone wins—and that’s the real American dream. #FaithAndFarming #AmericanDream #FoodWaste #Culture30Share
Shelly Powell+FollowIs the American Dream Still for Sale?Ever wonder if the American Dream is still within reach? Turns out, boomers, Gen X, and millennials all want the same things: a comfy retirement, good healthcare, and a home to call their own. But while boomers are more likely to own their homes outright, millennials are still hustling to catch up, thanks to sky-high prices. The big question: Will Social Security and affordable homes still be around when younger folks need them? Time to rethink what "making it" really means in 2025! #AmericanDream #MoneyTalk #Homeownership #RetirementGoals #GenZFinance #RealEstate13Share
Audrey Rose+FollowWhy We’re Still Obsessed With Factory JobsFactory jobs are the American dream that just won’t quit—even though they’re not what they used to be. Everyone from Trump to Bernie wants them back, but here’s the kicker: factories are way more automated now, and the pay isn’t as great as we remember. Plus, there are already tons of open factory jobs nobody’s taking! Turns out, our nostalgia for these jobs is more about culture and politics than reality. Wild, right? #FactoryJobs #AmericanDream #Nostalgia #Manufacturing #WorkCulture #JobCareer00Share
