general

so thats 1200 a month

I love how I actually don't care about money that much but it's just a joke at this point

The list price of insulin has gone from about $20 per vial in 1996, when Humalog entered the market, to about $275 per vial today. Humalog patients typically use about two vials a month, Lilly said......In February, the Senate Finance Committee sent Lilly a letter asking for more information about how it sets prices for its insulin products, including Humalog. The letter noted that taxpayers spend more than $1 billion a year for Humalog through Medicare and Medicaid and said, "When one insulin product costs the taxpayer more than $1 billion in one year, the American people ought to know how the company prices its product."

I think you care more about money than the average person here

appak

meanwhile spooky will buy 10k in semencoin just as a joke

semencoin

doubt

i doubt your doubt

I'm frugl b/c I liek effeciency but I don't really care that much

if I did

I would have a job rn

I think most of us just outright don't give a shit about money bopit

at all

something like teaching chem lab or being a ta

I don't either that's the thing

Also caring about money long term does not mean you have to wagecuck while doing school

when do I buy things ever?

When do I buy things ever either

lmao

being frugal does not mean you do not care about money long term

when do i buy things

dont answer that

So the interesting thing, is that assuming you can get a job without going to college, getting a job 4 years earlier and having zero college debt actually can set you up better financially

i buy shit all the time, like porn games for pika

if you and the college fag retire at the same time

which is again, why living life on a spreadsheet fucking sucks

yeah that's probably true spooky

engineering is fun

tho

also isn't PhD not worth sometimes?

fuck engineers

I'd go for a PhD b/c it's fun

PhD is basically never worth if you care about money probably

not b/c of the money

PHD is never financially "worth" it

You get a PhD if you want to stay in academia

I think you can definatly go into industry with a PhD

You can

and a lot do

I laugh at people who get their masters before getting their first job

more than if you go straight for a PHD

lmao based

spooky will laugh at me

pog

aren't you getting a PHD?

oh

you exclude that case

yeah

okay

same with people who do a 4-year degree in 5-6 years

for w/e reason

I did my 4 year in 5

lol

do you laugh at me for getting my masters by taking 1 extra semester and doing a few more clesses for it?

I wanted to do more math

I got a pure math minor out of it, which has payed off for bopits sake

btw that extra semester deosn't impact the time I graduate

it's borderline Bopit

it just eats one of my co-op blocks

oh, in that case no

yeah, good move

yeah it's

hella good deal

imo

fuck forced co-op semesters

downside is he has to do masters level math course and by that I mean he has to get me to help him understand group theory and differential geometry

my department is super strict on forced co-op semesters

there is like

1 semester leeway

which got fucked by corona for me

All masters programs in my field are 2 years so there is no way I would have been able to do that

lol

there are some that are 1 year accelerated

Yeah I am planning on maybe spending an extra year, picking up a minor and all that

do pure math mint

Just to like specialize, I don’t want to spend a whole ton of time in the industry

I tested into a trade level math course, 080 level
