Also, not saying don’t get a degree, but financially it’s probably not a good idea to spend thousands of dollars at this point in time if you think there’s any chance of a lay-off or furlough.
Do you really think that the global economy will recover from this that fast? Shelter in place orders are going on all over the world, businesses are going to fail from loss revenue, and not just the domestic, but the global economy is going to be hit hard. How can we have several months of this and be back to where we were in a year or less? United has already said that they expect our current reductions to intensify and last several months, followed by a slower than hoped for recovery, and a smaller company as a result.
