I recently discovered a co-worker of mine who did not attend university for programming is paid nearly the same wage as myself, with $40,000 in debt due to higher education.

He went to a several month long intensive coding bootcamp, with tuition fees for the entire course is between $10-15k

For comparison, I am paid $58/hr with benefits, my co worker is paid $50.

Higher education is vastly overcharged and overrated.
