1969 "In view of the short time left, a decision to pursue a career in this system of things is not only unwise but extremely dangerous .. Many young brothers and sisters were offered scholarship or employment that promised fine pay. However, they turned them down and put spiritual interests first." So by guiding their children away from the so-called 'higher' education of today, these parents spare their children exposure to an increasingly demoralizing atmosphere, and at the same time prepare them for life in a new system as well."
###############1969 "'What Influences Decisions in Your Life?' Many schools now have student counselors who encourage one to pursue higher education after high school, to pursue a career with a future in this system of things. Do not be influenced by them. Do not let them "brainwash" you with the Devil's propaganda to get ahead, to make something of yourself in this world. The world has very little time left! Any 'future' this world offers is no future!

What is a degree really worth?

This trend continues with higher degrees--on average, a master's degree adds a salary bump of another 25 percent over a bachelor's degree. Some observers believe that the economic downturn has given the holder of an advanced degree an even stronger edge.
The step to a doctorate or professional degree can be a leap to even bigger numbers. A doctorate can bring $15,000 to $35,000 more than a master's degree in a related field. Six-figure salaries are commonplace among professional degree holders.
When talk turns to earning more in business, everyone thinks about obtaining a master of business administration (MBA) degree. It's routine for men and women with this advanced business degree to earn salaries well into the six figures.
