Why Pay Tuition? Get Your Law Degree on eBay!

Yes, a(nother?) disgruntled graduated has decided to sell her degree on eBay...but only for the right price:
“Resume Goddess” is selling a six year old law degree on eBay, never used, from The John Marshall Law School in Chicago. She tells NetNet that loans from the third tier law school have “ruined” her life.
The price for this wonderful piece of paper? $200k starting bid. Looks like someone was looking for return on her investment!

I can't get the actual eBay auction to load. It's probably been taken down, since eBay values the integrity of its system and all, but at least it made it to CNBC.

  2. I am seriously going to list my degrees and law license. Either that or burn them!

  3. I had a full-tuition scholarship to attend Third Tier Drake. My wife worked full-time, but did not make much. I worked during the summers. We were frugal, and lived in cheap-ass Des Moines, Iowa. That said, I incurred an additional $37K in student loans for law school.

    I would gladly sell my law degree for a mere $10K to $15K - which I would then IMMEDIATELY put down on my student loans.
