 A sheepskin diploma might not be too convincing, however.. |
Education is worth investing in. A good $190 well spent.

Young travelers hitting the road are warned not to roam for too long lest they miss out on a college education and end up without qualifications. Older travelers, too, look back on their misspent youth and wonder just what kind of job they can get now that they’re getting long in the tooth and still have no letters after their name.
www.diplomamakers.com are a possible cure for such preoccupations, providing the traveler with a diploma in the subject of their choice, complete with transcripts. Marketed as realistic novely diplomas and are intended exclusively for entertainment use , the site is careful not to imply that anyone should use these fake diplomas for the purposes of deceiving an employer.
In fact the Q&A section is a hoot. They do everything to disclaim themselves of any potential fraudulent use of the fake diplomas.
As long as it is understood that these are not real degrees as issued by educational institutions, but rather novelty degrees, and are intended exclusively for entertainment use, we will let you the customer tell us where you want your degree from and what you want on it.
Although wisely, they specify:
Can I get any type of degree I wish?
Yes, with exception to degrees in the medical field, we will produce the degree of your choice.
Naturally, nor would Road Junky ever condone or encourage any kind of fraudulent use but no doubt there are travelers out there getting well paid jobs teaching English in South Korea or Japan with these fake diplomas, getting their apartments arranged for them and, in some cases, their flights paid.
Fortunately, we are confident in the moral fibre of our readers to resist such temptations and urge them to go $60,000 into debt to attain a piece of paper in a discipline that odd-on will never really serve them except to prove to future employers that they’re good at jumping through hoops…

When I first started traveling the only people who carried cell phones were drug dealers and to be seen talking on one was a bit of a giveaway.
No travelers ...

Nice! :)
Actually, I would have thought a fake diploma would be absolutely no use in getting an ESL job in Japan. I naturally expect any agency involved to do a search across the list of accredited colleges.
$190’s not bad, just ordered two. What sounds better, astrophysics or nuclear physics? ^^
All too funny, it gave me a chuckle. Everyone should know that college is nothing more than a hoop-jumping societal procedure to get the “good jobs”. Sadly, middle class america is soon discovering that these jobs don’t exist and our being outsourced to other countries. And the all to important college education system is nothing more than a idling point for the soon to be unemployed.
Turns out that jumping through hoops is everything. Ask anyone for anything and they’ll want to know if you pass a series of tests before they trust you with their resources. The degree then shows you can play the game.
Many a times we have to use fake degree you can apply with one degree for one college only…
