Could be different though I'd bet it is a something like that.

This post also brings up a whole other issue. Why does your college educated GF not have a job commensurate with a college education (paying more and offering health-care)? Could it be that we've turned college degrees into what high-school degrees were 30 years ago? Back then if you had a college degree you had a good job if you wanted one.

I dated a girl making around $1500 back around 1995 and even though she had a degree she liked the job. She has sense moved on but I don't knock anyone who is working.

Not knocking at all. Just making an observation that in the virtuous effort to get everyone in this country to go to college and get a degree we have seriously devalued the college degree. Sort of like we screwed up the housing market by trying to get everyone to own a house.
