My sister became an executive at a health insurance company based out of San Antonio, TX with only an associates degree from a unknown community college, making over 100,000 a year. The company recently paid for her to get her bachelors degree from Strayer University, a for profit university. Yet, her employees with degrees from well known state and university schools are making only 30-50k a year. Let me guess, you buy Apple products just because it has an Apple logo on the back?
I'm not going to argue the merits of a name or lack of name. Like I've said I gave my personal opinion on that – and I buy an Apple product in confidence based on its reputation and yes even the logo/build of the product, which I think is pretty

Your sister is more the exception than the norm for a reason – whether it be talent, hard work, luck, being at the right place right time, etc. of a combination of factors. Most people with an associate's level degree DON'T make over $100,000.
