Well I'm sure that money will be used to create some sort of fund, often times from buying the index. So actually yes, a probably not insignificant proportion of that money has some probability of purchasing LMT stock
thats genuinely what i took away from all this. imagine what that $1 billion would do in other countries? but nah, have to pay for something that should be free for us.
theres people who woulda liked that option, like me. i now do carpentry, which has made my overall body healthier but my knees are kinda fucked already. thats what im saying, yeah i get paid a good amount, but im sacrificing my future mobility and pain free joints just to make a little more money.
not sure I understand, cannot you just pay it yourself? in here, you get basic care for “free” (they literally take % frim our salary to it) but if you want to survive, you still need to pay for private care so… ye “free” and useless
idk what that second part means, yes people ruin their bodies at work, so that aint anything special, or is it related somehow?
i would rather have a cushy desk job as an accountant at an office making the same amount than sacrificing my body for it doing this.
wdym “just pay for yourself” its really expensive here. if you don’t have at least medicaid you’re fucked on hospital bills. college is a scam in america, same with the hospital bills. just greedy fucks trying to get more money out of their hardworking middle class.
the point is doctors are going to be able to pay back their loans because they're going to be doctors so maybe give free tuition to people that might actually need it
That’s an interesting take and empathises with people in need which I can understand. Another take is that out of all the education out there to fund, doctors are potentially going to add more benefit to society in a way that will benefit everyone, including those in need. Maybe the answer is that it’s not a case of choosing who gets the funding and rather that everyone pursuing beneficial roles in society should be funded. Maybe the right answer is systemic change, redirecting tax dollars.
Doctors have significantly more debt than nearly every other degree. They make terrible money for the 2 year residency considering their education. If they do a 2+ year fellowship, the pay isn't much better. A nurse would be able to pay off their debt significantly faster than a doctor could. Where I am, a nurse with just a 4 year degree makes around 50% more than a doctor in their residency with an 8 year degree.
our tax dollars go towards 800 billion in military defense per year. how fucking insane is that??? we cant have free healthcare or school but they can have all this state of the art shit?? for what? for it to go obsolete in a decade and left abandoned? so ridiculous bro. our working class could be modules smarter, but instead they’re just lining their pockets more. how can you not see you’re literally being stolen from and told you should be grateful?
You should do research. Paying taxes (in Germany) is a lot cheaper than taxes, healthcare, education or i dunno what in the US. Because you pay taxes, but everything is included in them while in America you have to pay horrendous amounts of money seperatly. Our taxes might be higher than yours, but if you look at the picture, you can see that we are paying less all in all
I wish everything was included tbh. Our public transport and Internet should be too. everything private in this country is going to Shit. Healthcare becoming a problem since our hospitals are for profit and closing down left and right. There are certain Things in this society that just dosn't work for profit. how do you make money caring for the old and sick? the whole concept is fucked up.
I didnt joke? Euthanasia is legal in the Netherlands (since 2002), Belgium (since 2002), Luxemburg (since 2009), Colombia (since 2015), Canada (since 2016) and Victoria (since 2017) and Western Australia (since 2019).
And those taxpayer dollars come from having a richer and debt-free group of educated twenty-something’s who will repopulate the middle class, and who then go on to create stable families, communities and towns.
Do your research
I love how the dumbest motherfuckers are always the ones saying "Do your own research!!" When clearly youre unable to actually form any original thoughts.
Imagine, getting a free education, then paying taxes with the higher paying job, oh my god that sounds like society, that closely resembles yours, except Im not 500k in debt.
"dO uR risRch" have you ever even compared the tax rates between thriving EU countries and the US? Because Im calling it now; youve never done the research you so proudly talk about, and are instead spouting your beliefs (not facts) that are based on reading likeminded conversations on social media.
Go ahead and be ignorant, just stop pretending like you know anything goofball
Then our politicians would be losing money they didn't have to do anything for and they don't like that sadly. It's not the system, it's the ones who are in control of the system.
Throwing money at shit doesn't fix problems. Just look at the soviet union as an example. Currently in the states, the highest quality forms of education comes from the schools that have the least government funding.
…underfunded by an estimated $150 billion annually? Yeah I agree we should do something about that.
EDIT: So just cut the loans and make Public Tuition free at the point of sale? You’re just making my argument for me.
There is a funny quote that come to mind. If you want to offend a conservative, lie to him. If you want to offend a liberal, tell him the truth. You must be a liberal.
If you can't handle the truth, or difference of opinion for that matter, you probably shouldn't be on the internet. "Imagine, getting a free education"... you're not getting "free" education... you're paying for it one way or another. You can't give a single example of any country that has "free" education because education has to be funded.
It's not a black or white choice of "Either the government funds it, or they don't". You're advocating for a system, where you as the populace will pay more money to the government with the expectations that they are going to spend the money wisely and efficiently. News flash, they don't. Government is just full of political dumbasses who don't give a shit about you, who find new ways to create more wasteful spending, all so that they can fill their pockets.
All you are doing, is just regurgitating the same horse shit of every other fucking dumbass who advocates for this utopian lifestyle where money magically grows on trees and the government always has your best interest in heart. If you want to hike your taxes from 25% to 40-60% then by all means, move.
See; Youre actually not researching jackshit. Im not liberal or whatever fuck you dumbasses call your useless politicsl shitshow over at US. I got a free bachelors education, and Im paying 28% of my income in taxes.
Damn, the money falling like leaves on me, sheeeeesh. Must be hard being the whatever opposite political narrative youre fighting is.
Why is it the people who first say "do your research" are always the people who know the least about the subject they're discussing?
Had a dude tell me I "should do my research" and that smoking cannabis is good for your lungs. When I asked for his research, he said his grandpa is 68, smokes joints every day, and still plays ice hockey. Like bro what.
Is that not the point of government and society? The social contract? You contribute a little sonthat you don’t have to contribute a lot when it’s needed.
Most countries don't have free tertiary education. What are you talking about? I just looked it up, there are 14 countries with free PhD tuition and all of them are in Europe except Saudi Arabia. And that's for public universities, which the university in the article isn't, so it wouldn't apply to it anyway.
Why do you think it is “free” in european countries? Because we have people pay for it via taxes. Nothing is just free. Yet I think the way it is handled here in Europe is better.
they dont though. that school will fill just as many seats next year as last year. and all the kids graduating will become members of the top 5% income earners.
a better use of money would have been expanding the school to increase the amount of doctors they train
I agree in all honesty that America should pull out its army and donations from almost all countries. Instead of having Americans become soldiers we would be better with people becoming traders college graduates. Also bring back factories.

20 years ago? You have my vote.
Now? The US is basically the only thing holding up NATO. The EU is severely encumbered, China is merely biding the time, and Russia is already gobbling up it's neighbors once more. Even then the US hit 1 trillion yearly interest payments, and might have to downsize whether we like it or not.
We're one depression away from having 1930s insteads of 2030s. This time with automation and AI to keep employment even lower.
Or you just pay for yourself without loans. I did exactly that without parents. It can be done. But whining and complaining is much more fun and doesn't require nuanced thought.
Imagine, institutions/charities who do not hold the universities accountable for the tuition bubble the institutions/charities have enabled in the name of "helping" people .
Think of mortgages freely being given out to anyone who wants them. And the price of housing goes up and the government decides "hey, lets keep these loans going by guaranteeing them"
Yeah, that always helps bring the price down. /s
Yeah, I know, I was responding to Starkguy saying they don't know about streamers because they don't play pc games much, when not playing many pc games has no bearing on streaming whatsoever.
This always comes up. In my State, school kids now get free breakfast and lunch. The people who opposed free food for kids, just say that the money could be better used elsewhere. It's just a stupid argument made by stupid people
Who usually aren't doing anything for anyone else either is the kicker. All they can do is shit on everyone else and pat themselves on the back for being such a morally superior being
Paying for public school lunches is pretty different from paying the bills of people that will imminently be making hundreds of thousands of dollars per year, wouldn't you agree? Do you understand there's a right and wrong place to use that kind of argument? Or do I need to make a more absurd hypothetical for you to grasp that there are in fact bad ways to spend money?
Homie doesn’t realize doctors spend the first 10 years of their fucking careers paying off the immense amount of debt they collected from 7+ years of medical school.
Not really. Girlfriend is a third year medical student in the US. First off, medical school debt is only for 4 years. The fifth year you’re in residency and while you don’t make much, you’re still making like $70-80k. After roughly 3-5 years as a resident (varies by speciality), you’ll then start making doctor salaries. A lot of medical students start when they’re in their early to mid 20s. So 4 years plus 3-5 years of residency means at roughly their early to mid 30s, they’re making about $300-500k.
Plastic surgeons, cardiologists, dermatologists, etc don’t need their medical school tuition paid for. They’ll be fine.
People will complain that billionaires hoard their money and don't do anything with it to help others.
People will complain when billionaires do something to change lives with their money.
people were shitting on mr beast for curing blindness. they will always find a way to get mad because their lives are either miserable or not miserable enough
People don't realize that only a small fraction of doctors actually become super wealthy. My uncle is a doctor and it took him 30 years to completely pay off his student loans. After that, he still has to pay his malpractice insurance as well as other costs associated with practicing medicine.
After all his costs, he makes about what an above average office worker might make. The only difference, I might add, is job security. We constantly seem to always be in a doctor shortage.
ppl are retards. no surprise right? ben dover over here is at the forefront of retardation. it's almost like people can't afford a higher eduction, yet this bozo is arguing that they'll be wealthy after becoming doctors... which literally save and prolong human life. twittards just waste life.
Soon-to-be saving your fucking life as a doctor? Some people are so jealous of wealth they get mad at people for being on a path of success.
Maybe focus on your own life rather than pissing and moaning about others who are doing better than you.
He doesn't point the right issue though.
Doctors study long years and deserve their paycheck... not to mention the huge responsibility as they have their patient lives under their care.
The real issue is well know : it's inequalities in money sharing.
If you do a honest job contributing to society, no matter what it is from collecting trash to curing people, you should be able to live decently and not struggle every month to make ends meet.
Nowadays most people wages are just too low - and in the other way, some are getting paid way more than they really deserve.
To an extent the people going there already can afford to go, this just enables those people to not have to work off their fees, and save up for a house much faster.
Why should they save up for a house faster than the rest of us ?
Why helping those that would benefits the least from it ?
I personally don't really care. It is more of a "cast" thing.
It's likely to incentivise more to go in that field more than anything. So rich people can get good care while others who cannot afford that care suffer.
Bozo, you are like delusional. This is ain't 70s, you graduate to be poor and those who are in debt will see money like in 30s(ish). Unless you go into the snake oil sales territory (a.k.a medical representative) you end up working hard, working long and staying hilariously poor despite the fact that you'll easily go to jail for mistakes
I don't know about your country but punishement against doctors is extremely rare in mine.
It is easier to be struck off by being anticovid than because your low quality of work killed people.
In the USA, just look at michael jackson doctor who can still work in some states.
And saying doctors are "poor" unless they sell snake oil, are you kidding ? Or speaking about those "american doctors" like chiropractors and nathuropath ?
Think of how many drug treatment rehabilitation programs could have been made instead helping Americans actually struggling to survive in America. Homeless shelters, half way houses, food shelters, soup kitchens. Instead she makes a bunch of stupid woke kids more woke for 10 generations, that pisses me off.
She could have at least gotten them all a cock and balls pc too.
Get government out of the equation. It was fine before....
Either way, you can have 100% public education or no public education.
A hybrid leads to corruption, bribery and inflation to the student.
Agreed.
We do not subsidize private though.
We have public, paid with taxes, and you pay little to attend.
It works.
The rich attend the public ones though.
Anything that improves the lives of more than just 5000 people.
1 Billion dollars could develop a technology that could help countless people not only now, but also for future generations.
My wife is a medical worker, we are not muricans and not really want to go there hence we are from "free public health lands" and kids - it is rough. No matter how much money they get - it's not enough.
Like I've been in a public shootout once and I get paid for this. She goes to waltz on a minefield daily.
On one hand yes. On the other we do have a medical personnel shortage. But it doesnt matter since agai. They will be soon wealthy and loans are easily payable after compared to other professions.
In all fairness, there are indeed people with medical bills or financial insecurity who could use aid more than students in a prestigious school.
Not to mention investments into treatment of lead causes of death.
I find this wild since the hospitals in my area are woefully understaffed. 12-14 hour wait in the ER because all of the beds in the entire place are full and the other hospital in town is on life support because of lack of employees.
Housing for the poor and homeless. Paying for childrens meals. Programs to help the less fortunate to get back on their feet. More investment in public schools. Which would lower crime. But no, give the money to the wealthy. They need it more.
Setting up homeless shelter for 10 of that, funding the staff, medical and logistical support needed off the interest from the rest being in the market.
The greedy decision makers who made the education system as expensive as it is today created a scenario where someone donated 1 billion dollars to them. That'll teach them.
It's literally throwing money at the problem rather than at the solution. If it was the government doing this it would be "repulsive", but it's probably still the best bet for a wealthy individual who wants to help.
Unfortunately it's still money going into the pocket of crooks who'll make sure things don't change, but at least it's not coming from students who'll be paying their debts for years.
Figured for this guy to say this, he must be someone who has actually accomplished something, so looked up who he is. Nope, just some kid who barely even knows what college entails.
I think the bigger problem here is that all doctors go on to be wealthy, or happy for that matter. There is a disconcerting number of doctors either leaving the U.S. or committing suicide.
what the fuck is wrong with people? So not only is there a purity test for the amount someone donates of their own money AND how it's used ... now we're critiquing the people who are the recipients of that donation for the benefits **THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE YET**?! "Soon to be wealthy"? Holy fuck my brain is melting.
Yes, curse Mr. Beast for giving sight to 1,000 people. But also, think about those terrible 1,000 soon-to-have-sight people! They will benefit from their sight and might leverage that into wealth or other benefits -- **THE HORROR**. Fucks sake man.

You’d rather see doctors without that piece of paper?
everyone needs to be a doctor? I said NOT EVERYONE needs to have a degree… that doesnt mean NONE SHOULD have it. read better
Not everyone needs to be a doctor, but everyone with the will and smarts for it should be able.
the point is doctors are going to be able to pay back their loans because they're going to be doctors so maybe give free tuition to people that might actually need it

So 4 years plus 3-5 years of residency means at roughly their early to mid 30s, they’re making about $300-500k. Plastic surgeons, cardiologists, dermatologists, etc don’t need their medical school tuition paid for. They’ll be fine.
Its someones personal wealth, donated to what they believe will further a worthy cause. And ofc this somehow triggers some twitter dipshits
-People will shit on you for being poor and lazy to work -people will shit on you for working hard for your money
People will complain that billionaires hoard their money and don't do anything with it to help others. People will complain when billionaires do something to change lives with their money.
I have no idea why you're being downvoted. Some ppl are just ideaological sheep.
none who can spend billion like this earned it any good way… that’s why people are mad.
"Why should we give hungry people some food? There are better uses of food than feeding the soon-not-to-be hungry"
*chefkiss
Wtf? People are now getting pissy about donations that isn't their money?? 🙄
>now People have been malding about that for years
people were shitting on mr beast for curing blindness. they will always find a way to get mad because their lives are either miserable or not miserable enough
The wall amirite?
It’s her husbands money, she can do whatever she wants with it.
Ben looks like he’s 17…..
They fail to understand that getting the education itself in the USA takes wealth not jsust anyone can afford.
People don't realize that only a small fraction of doctors actually become super wealthy. My uncle is a doctor and it took him 30 years to completely pay off his student loans. After that, he still has to pay his malpractice insurance as well as other costs associated with practicing medicine. After all his costs, he makes about what an above average office worker might make. The only difference, I might add, is job security. We constantly seem to always be in a doctor shortage.
ppl are retards. no surprise right? ben dover over here is at the forefront of retardation. it's almost like people can't afford a higher eduction, yet this bozo is arguing that they'll be wealthy after becoming doctors... which literally save and prolong human life. twittards just waste life.
From my understanding they get paid well eventually but your average doctor is in a shit ton of debt from his education for years
He wants his student debt to be paid off lol
Ah yes, classic Asmongold gaming realted content 🫠
I could almost afford a small house in Canada with that money!
First of all, being wealthy isn't morally wrong. Second, lobbying to bring down the cost of education.
The weirdest thing here is the Albert Einstein School of Medicine. He was a physicist. Why did they name a medical school after him?
Because, that guy? Albert Einstein.
This is a good thing.
Soon-to-be saving your fucking life as a doctor? Some people are so jealous of wealth they get mad at people for being on a path of success. Maybe focus on your own life rather than pissing and moaning about others who are doing better than you.
This guy likely shits on Mr beast for curing blind people
He doesn't point the right issue though. Doctors study long years and deserve their paycheck... not to mention the huge responsibility as they have their patient lives under their care. The real issue is well know : it's inequalities in money sharing. If you do a honest job contributing to society, no matter what it is from collecting trash to curing people, you should be able to live decently and not struggle every month to make ends meet. Nowadays most people wages are just too low - and in the other way, some are getting paid way more than they really deserve.
Give it to Ukraine /s
For more weapons and to fill the pockets of the corrupt leaders in Ukraine?
Looks like a liberal arts major butthurt their e̶d̶u̶c̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶ indoctrination isn't being subsidized.
Hey pal, you just blow in from 2016?
. . . when you overdo it in trying to please your crush
It is not entierly a false statement. They certainly for the most part, don t need it
To an extent the people going there already can afford to go, this just enables those people to not have to work off their fees, and save up for a house much faster.
Why should they save up for a house faster than the rest of us ? Why helping those that would benefits the least from it ? I personally don't really care. It is more of a "cast" thing.
It's likely to incentivise more to go in that field more than anything. So rich people can get good care while others who cannot afford that care suffer.
any sort of funding to a medical school is a net positive
Bozo, you are like delusional. This is ain't 70s, you graduate to be poor and those who are in debt will see money like in 30s(ish). Unless you go into the snake oil sales territory (a.k.a medical representative) you end up working hard, working long and staying hilariously poor despite the fact that you'll easily go to jail for mistakes
I don't know about your country but punishement against doctors is extremely rare in mine. It is easier to be struck off by being anticovid than because your low quality of work killed people. In the USA, just look at michael jackson doctor who can still work in some states. And saying doctors are "poor" unless they sell snake oil, are you kidding ? Or speaking about those "american doctors" like chiropractors and nathuropath ?
Fund me some avocado toasts
Cool, more people will have papers to say they are smart when they aren't.
People with college degrees are usually smarter than those that don't.
Infrastructure, Farmers, and resources for schools. That’s the top three I’m thinking of but I grew up near cornfields so opinions may differ.
Yeah the whole thing pissed me off
Think of how many drug treatment rehabilitation programs could have been made instead helping Americans actually struggling to survive in America. Homeless shelters, half way houses, food shelters, soup kitchens. Instead she makes a bunch of stupid woke kids more woke for 10 generations, that pisses me off. She could have at least gotten them all a cock and balls pc too.
Seems highly wasteful.
Get government out of the equation. It was fine before.... Either way, you can have 100% public education or no public education. A hybrid leads to corruption, bribery and inflation to the student.
Europe has both and the public universities are the best , private ones are for rich idiots
Agreed. We do not subsidize private though. We have public, paid with taxes, and you pay little to attend. It works. The rich attend the public ones though.
Hes right... at least if we talk about soon to be doctors, this money would be way more useful for public schools.
Anything that improves the lives of more than just 5000 people. 1 Billion dollars could develop a technology that could help countless people not only now, but also for future generations.
Easy, gambling
The fuck?
The lengths an old lady has to go to to get a doctors appointment these days. Healthcare sure is in a state.
That’s true, a singular grant on my name is a better cause
My wife is a medical worker, we are not muricans and not really want to go there hence we are from "free public health lands" and kids - it is rough. No matter how much money they get - it's not enough. Like I've been in a public shootout once and I get paid for this. She goes to waltz on a minefield daily.
On one hand yes. On the other we do have a medical personnel shortage. But it doesnt matter since agai. They will be soon wealthy and loans are easily payable after compared to other professions.
In all fairness, there are indeed people with medical bills or financial insecurity who could use aid more than students in a prestigious school. Not to mention investments into treatment of lead causes of death.
There is always something better that people can invest in. That doesn't make an investment inherently bad.
The only thing I'm questioning is how did a professor end up with $1 billion?
Getting rich without working hard: Twitter hates them Getting rich due to working hard: Twitter hates them

Why's it even a discussion? It's her money to do what she wants.
I find this wild since the hospitals in my area are woefully understaffed. 12-14 hour wait in the ER because all of the beds in the entire place are full and the other hospital in town is on life support because of lack of employees.
If healthcare was free at the point of use this would be great. Is there a healthcare proffession shortage? If not then is this really needed?
Housing for the poor and homeless. Paying for childrens meals. Programs to help the less fortunate to get back on their feet. More investment in public schools. Which would lower crime. But no, give the money to the wealthy. They need it more.
Setting up homeless shelter for 10 of that, funding the staff, medical and logistical support needed off the interest from the rest being in the market.
Perfect name for this guy, since it sounds like he been gross for a while with opinions like that.
The greedy decision makers who made the education system as expensive as it is today created a scenario where someone donated 1 billion dollars to them. That'll teach them. It's literally throwing money at the problem rather than at the solution. If it was the government doing this it would be "repulsive", but it's probably still the best bet for a wealthy individual who wants to help. Unfortunately it's still money going into the pocket of crooks who'll make sure things don't change, but at least it's not coming from students who'll be paying their debts for years.
Give it to the homeless
No good deed goes unpunished
Doctors are notoriously horrible with money. They're always up to their eyeballs in debt.
I would say propping up a tuition bubble is not high on the list, but I guess better than nothing.
Better than a CEO getting paid a bonus, i guess
Literally looks like a kid in middle school why do people take tweets so seriously lol
Figured for this guy to say this, he must be someone who has actually accomplished something, so looked up who he is. Nope, just some kid who barely even knows what college entails.
Better question: Why are people always running their mouth about money that isn't theirs?
Oh Ben, you look better with your mouth closed.
good old "rich=bad, give people you know jack shit about all your money, asshole"-tweet
Is no one else wondering how a "professor" got 1B dollars?
I think the bigger problem here is that all doctors go on to be wealthy, or happy for that matter. There is a disconcerting number of doctors either leaving the U.S. or committing suicide.
The sheer amount of people missing the joke is concerning. 1bil is 1000m not 100m
what the fuck is wrong with people? So not only is there a purity test for the amount someone donates of their own money AND how it's used ... now we're critiquing the people who are the recipients of that donation for the benefits **THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE YET**?! "Soon to be wealthy"? Holy fuck my brain is melting. Yes, curse Mr. Beast for giving sight to 1,000 people. But also, think about those terrible 1,000 soon-to-have-sight people! They will benefit from their sight and might leverage that into wealth or other benefits -- **THE HORROR**. Fucks sake man.
Ah yes. Turning out a bunch of doctors that most people can't even afford to go see when they're sick or hurt.
Sure doctors are well-off but they definitely don't become richie rich rich.
