Have you carried out a successful con? Perhaps you hustled a few quid off a stranger, or defrauded a multi-national company. Or have you been taken for the wide-eyed, naive rube that you are?

I feel conned out of my timeby being tricked into reading people whinge about degree costs and how they don't lead to jobs.
In the UK, the average graduate earns more than £400,000 over their lifetime more than the average non-graduate. Fact.

No-one tricked you into reading the storiesYou read them of your own volition.
Your facts are also spurious - £400 000 a year for the average working life of 21-65 works out at £9090 per annum. I would hope a good number of non-graduates are pulling in more than that over their lifetime.
