Yes, definitely college is one of the best things that we can do in our life. Hodling bitcoin will be good investment but don't ever risk your education over bitcoin. Education first and you can follow up crypto while studying.
That is right don't relyto the crypto because better if we have education because we know crypto is still here. But education needs time and effort before you graduate. Im college student now but I can still workto the crypto because I have goal even it's hard incase I have project and test I will do still crypto because that's the reason why Im here in college because crypto that I earned I use it as allowance.

I was watching a video "Is it college worth it?" and meanwhile I was thinking about that:

Would you advice a teenager to spend 50k/100k in education or would you advice him to buy bitcoin or alt coin and hold them for 3/5 years?

I do hesitate a regular teenager has enough money to invest in bitcoin! While there are special loans for education as a way out nobody will lend you money for a bitcoin, even parents who mostly believe in education. By they way will you be able not work rest of your life in those 3/5 years you hold bitcoin? I am not sure...

That question really made me think haha (i'm a college student). In my country, the university is free and I think it is still better to attend it than not. But when answering your question I'd say that id still go to school, because if you make a lot of money fast without knowledge you will end up loosing it.

You guys in your country are lucky for having free education. Unlike other countries, education on college isn't free and they can only afford it through loans which they'll pay once they are employed after graduation.

Advising people to invest after graduation would be a better choice than choose them to gamble when they are not even sure of what they'll be investing.

Yes. College is worth it. Why? Because if you are smart, you will borrow your way through college, and then cancel the debt... and then contact the credit bureaus to give yourself good credit again.

The ethics behind this doesn't seem to be good, and in the eyes of many people, isn't good. But that's simply because they don't know how bank "borrowing" really works. The way banks make new money is that they loan it into existence. See the article, below.

The article states it straight out. But then it runs all around the idea for good reason. Different countries do it different ways with different banks. And cancelling your debt (because there wasn't really any loan in the first place) might hurt you if you don't know how to do it right, and would mess up the whole money system if everybody started doing it.


Global Demographic Fact Vs. Central Bank Sorcery



However, since World War II, interest rate policy has moved inversely of annual working-age population growth, to incent ever more debt as working-age population growth has decelerated to nothing.

Interestingly, total annual change in energy consumption has mirrored annual working-age population growth.except where synthetic growth has been temporarily substituted to maintain the appearance of growth (aka, China).

Eventually, the inorganically rising consumption and asset prices will return to their organic baseline.and that will be a very rude new dawn for those who believed in infinite growth.

The 1st world economy lives within a fractional reserve banking system.  In a fractional reserve system, one persons debt is the systems new money, as money is lent into existence.


Cool


EDIT: College loans aren't the only thing that can be cancelled. Any bank loan can be cancelled for this exact same reason. But, know what you are doing and how it works, and really, who you are. If you don't, you might get burned. Net search for Tom Schauf to find the details.

A teenager can actually spend less on education.
And spend less on altcoins.
The money can be divided

Finishing a college degree is an achievement and most parents want for their kids, because no one can take it away from you.

It's not a guarantee of having a successful life but it's a stepping stone to reach your goal.

After college that's the time to invest in crypto and for other opportunities out there.

Each person's success depends on his / her ability to succeed How talented he's for that task. you're right that crypto at school is where he will find his life goals you are doing not need to walk around disappointed in your next life. I feel it is a good idea to stay up with the tiny expenditure for 3/5 years because if he can finish his studies, he is going to be ready to make tons of profit by increasing the worth of Bitcoin and finding how to maneuver forward within the future.

study is still one of the most important part of living,in this we are assure of at least having a Job in future.

but sometimes our future is not only based in schools instead in business or  in investing .so it can be study or just invest in Bitcoin,depend on our faith as parents to what our children may face.

Does any college offer a course on the question of how beneficial college is? If they do, how expensive is the course?

It's good because in the end, you'll get a certification. Which depicts the level of education one has attained. Its necessary; but making money in or out of college is a different ball game.

I accept as true with you because a degree in Gender Studies can't be done immediately if we've to finish an engineering degree so as to urge around for employment then there's not much to try to to for the work. But without these if you've got already learned about crypto then you'll still do something.

When you go to the K thru 12th grade school, the main indoctrination is to sit at a desk. It is big business that directs school boards to make this happen for kids. Why do they do it? To promote the idea of sitting behind a desk for the rest of your life. When you get out of school and become an adult, the most practical thing that is ingrained into you is to sit behind a desk in an office so that you are slaving for big business. Your pay is peanuts.

College is simply the training of how to sit behind the desk and what to do. Even trade school training is part of the behind-the-desk training, no matter what the trade is.

Wanna have success in life? Learn entrepreneurship... which they mostly don't teach you in school. Then get out there and make the things happen that you want to happen. Why be a doctor, or accountant, or actuary, and earn $hundreds of thousands of dollars a year?... when you could be an entrepreneur earning $millions or $billions?

Look at Elon Musk for example.

Cool

It is an achievement but how about all the money spent in order to acquire the college degree?
Would you ever get them back?
And if you get a college degree and get a job in a firm then you are not going to have any time in order to invest in cryptocurrencies.

College is worth every young people to get more knowledge because they will get the way to think and how to solve the problem. Maybe that can make someone proud because he can achieve his dream by continuing his studies, so after he graduates, he can search for a job base on his degree. It depends on what people think about the knowledge that will get in the college because they can also get that by searching on the internet or another course, but they won't get a degree for that.

Like in investment you need a capital in order to earn. If you're a degree holder you can get a decent job with good salary unlike if you didnt finish your studies.

And if you get a college degree and get a job in a firm then you are not going to have any time in order to invest in cryptocurrencies.
You can invest in crypto while working, but you need time management.

If it is year 2005 we are talking about, I would definitely advise to buy bitcoin and then hodl for 10 years.  Grin But time in between will be crucial, can probably work some jobs along the way while your bitcoin works for you at the same time. But of course, we are talking 100 btc here in 2005. Must be great!

I agree with you it would be great for us At present there is nothing to be done by studying so much money Baker's going to be frustrated like this If we buy Bitcoin with that money. Then I can make a lot of money after a certain amount of time There will be no problem with the job and it is worth all the things.

You would never advice anyone to buy such a portion of Bitcoins.
You say that because you already know where the price went in the future of 2005.
If it was 2005 you should probably tell a teenager to go to college because Bitcoin didn't exist back then!
