I'm just glad that education is relatively inexpensive here. I just had to pay some 640€ per semester and I believe that the 500€ fee that was included in the 640 has been dropped now. Charging horrendous amounts of money for education is in my opinion the best way to keep a lot of smart people from getting degrees and by that weakening ones own economy big time.
And yes, my degree didn't pay off at all too. Been unemployed for over a year now.
