just rip it and win

in a section entitled "The benefits of a bachelor's," cnn makes the following claim:

Full-time workers aged 25-34 with college degrees make an average of $14,000 a year more than those with high school diplomas.

but if you have to pay off $120k in college costs, which the article claims is average, you'll only end up with $20k extra in that time, which you could have easily made in the four years of not going to school.
