The real question is why do so many engineers hold alt-right or libertarian views.
Its a good thing you were there to reality check him
What field isn't competitive? The day of being able to half-ass your education, graduate with a 2.5 GPA, and get some lifelong career in your field is long over. It's not that engineers getting 100k out of the gate isn't realistic (it is). It's that all engineers aren't going to make that out of the gate. So if your friend is pulling like a 3.5+ GPA its a very real possibility, but if not then I'd suggest telling them to study more.
As an engineer I frequently wish I'd gone for something like accounting. Easier job with better pay, even if it might be boring. I would never advise anyone looking at possible majors to go for engineering these days apart from maybe chemical or computer.
The difficulty of being an engineer definitely doesn't measure up to the pay you get. But some variations of "engineer" absolutely have it better than others.

This guy I know is bragging about 100k out the game but like bro the field is competitive lmao be realisticFunny, I make that fixing the dumbass designs engineers make when designing new vehicles.
hell naaw you dont want accounting. My wife is an accountant and her hours are insanely horseshit from January 1 until May, plus another micro busy season for all of September thru October. Otherwise, her non busy season hours are still 50-55 a weekI'm an accountant and I work 37.5 hours a week, most of that is goofing off at home
I only know a handful of people with engineering degrees but they all make very good money and did so from a fairly young age.even if you don't make it on your first job right out of college you can advance rapidly
