By Robert Farrington| Forbes Verified If you have kids approaching college age or you're planning to pursue a college degree yourself, it makes sense to wonder if your efforts will even pay off in the end. Not only are there college costs to contend with, but a frighteningly high percentage of degrees have been shown to have a negative return-on-investment (ROI). If you're planning to pursue most liberal arts degrees, for example, you would be financially better off for life if you skip college and do something else instead.
By Robert Farrington| Forbes Verified There’s a general belief that getting an advanced degree, such as a MBA or PhD, is a path towards higher income and more wealth. But that’s not always the case.

By Robert Farrington| robertfarrington.com@ Google is the largest search engine in the world - but they do so much more. They are the largest advertising firm (where they use tons of data about you to market ads to you). They run a lot of services: email, maps, documents, storage, and more. That's a lot of information to have about you. And it's not just Google. All the social media sites, many companies, and even governments look at your public and private information to "connect" the dots. It's sparked a trend: De-Googling.
