Methods section as well*

        For my hypothesis, I choose to see how education cannot define how much person can make (income) whether if they have an education or not. To see If also a relation between inequality and mortality found in the US is because different levels of formal education. From personal experience I have seen many people in my life who have been very successful without school, For example, my best friend Phillip from Kindergarten all the way til' now. He became very wealthy after a couple of YouTube videos that he posted. He started producing content and his channel grew exponentially and made a total amount of 683 million views, and each million could project up to $15,000. Total earnings from producing content is $10,245,000 from YouTube alone with/without ad revenues. And this prove that education can't always guarantee millions unless you're in a well acquired

industry.

 

Independent variable: Education Attainment (recode education and income)

 

Dependent variable: Earnings (salary & wages)

 

As you can see, according to the chart, you can see that 240 people with a GED or Diploma earn about $25,000 or more. Compared to people with a 4 year degree only about 187 people make $25,000 plus. Plus the people that pursue a higher education for a master graduate program about earned more, they earned about more or close to a six figure salary. For example, an anesthesiologist would make $310k to S520k.  According to Muller, "According to US census data for the year 1998, the median earnings of adult, year-round workers with professional degrees are about four times higher than those of adults who had not completed high school.10 Thus, the level of education ought to be correlated with cumulative income, which is the basis for measuring income inequality."
