Caveat Emptor - Charles Fout - 05-08-2026
Admonishment:
Time is your most valuable asset. Money is hard earned. Do not waste either on bullshit universities.
That is all.
Carry on

Could you elaborate on what you mean by that term?

I cannot understand why any explanation is needed.
Simply this: I encourage thoughtful personal asset management.
Res ipsa loquitur.

You're saying that the term "bullshit universities" requires no clarification. Okay. Fine. Whatever.

My interpretation.
“Caveat emptor”
Is Latin for “let the buyer beware.”
“Admonishment”
This means a warning, scolding, or serious piece of advice.
"Time is your most valuable asset. Money is hard earned."
Literal meaning.
“Do not waste either on bullshit universities.”
In the context of DegreeForum, this is classic forum wisdom: skip the overpriced “name-brand” universities if they’re not worth it, because there are smarter paths.

Wishing you the best.
It is my hope to only engage in education related discussion.
