Education: Negative Graduating Premiums?
I have been studying “negative graduating premiums,” a phrase I picked up in the United Kingdom. It compares the incomes of those who take on degrees versus those who learn a skill.

In simple terms, these can be explained as making educational investments that don’t yield commensurate returns.
