Education

[Oilacris]

Education is not the only key to success anymore, then we all be believe that, if we don't go to school, we can't make it, the country is something else, we should find all means to be a successful person in life, education is good, but we have to find all means to make it, country which a graduate is riding bike, someone that spend thousands of naira to go to the school, is now riding bike, imagine,

So is always good to invest in once self, than working under someone, which you won't have time for yourself,

Just an advise

Education does not promise a person to be successful. You have misunderstood education. Education is just being smart people.Don't expect after you get a big degree from education and get a decent job from the state, because so many people have big degrees while the needs of the country are few. Of course you have to compete.
So what is the function of education?
You dare to talk about investing because you have an education. People who do not have education will not understand investment, let alone crypto investment which is full of risk of price fluctuations.
People who have higher education, they think about creating jobs, not looking for work.
Actually the right sentence is, a diploma does not prove someone is smart, but a diploma only proves someone has attended school.

Doesnt promise for you to be successful but having education or having simply a degree will really be putting up some advantage compared to other people who doesnt have a degree.
You could really be having some multiple options whether you would really be looking for job physically or any some sort but there are people who doesnt have a degree but do able to
to make themselves to be that successful via other means like freelancing or businesses or investment which could really give out that kind of chance
but honestly it would really be depending on how you would really make yourself do the hard work to make yourself improved.

Well, you have some point OP but having a good education is more advantage than those who have nothing and this becomes easier for them to succeed.
As you can see around, all the changes that we have seen are because we educate ourselves, we come up with the great idea because of that.
You can find education is useless and that was because we never find a way to use it properly. And what you said it was his/her choice because if he uses his head to look for a job, he never ends up just riding a bike but probably in a decent workplace.

For education to be effective. People have to believe that reading and learning provide tangible benefits to themselves and society. They have to see the real world application of it.

The way education is implemented today. People don't see the real world value. Its not portrayed in a way which allows them to apply it to their daily lives. This is where education fails. Most students spend more than 10 years in compulsory education. Without learning much that is useful for a job or career. While corporate entities like TLC (the learning channel), history channel and discovery channel in the past did produce content which made learning fun and provided a good resource that people could use. The contrast between the two approaches was interesting. Until of course good educational content stopped being produced.

These days podcasts, youtube and independent content creators provide more valuable resources for education than schools.

The institutional segment of education becoming more about profits than providing a valuable resource to people certainly did not help these negative trends.

Like for profit prisons, the for profit aspect of education has seen the educational process deteriorate into what produces the most profits, rather than what a good educational experience should consist of.

I think at some point most people became convinced learning and reading were completely useless things. That is the biggest obstacle people face in terms of them becoming knowledgeable or educated.

Education gives the base, and it is upto us how we carry it forward. We don't have much of opportunities to survive which is true, but it is our inefficiency to complaint. It is our responsibility to do the best and make a change. When we have a proper goal and we run for it, surely we can succeed. Most of the time we limit ourselves and never think of long run, we just find ways to fulfill the present time need. This is the reason why people get educated and land in different job profiles that don't match them.

[Silberman]

First of all, I must say that you're mistaken school with education while they're both different. Well, we are not getting educated to work for someone but to discover ourselves and our talents. You can not run a successful investment if you're less educated. Mind you, you don't necessarily need to attend school in order to be educated or successful. However, education is still the key to success!

I thought the same when I was reading the post of the OP, it seems he is confusing school and the credentialism that is expanding all over the world with education, it is true that the standards on the majority of schools all over the world are going down, just as an example I took the time to read the math book from a family member that is currently at high school, and since I still have my books from that time I took the time to compare them and the complexity of the new knowledge being taught was very low, so kids and young people are no longer being taught as we were and this explains while companies complain about their future employees not having the necessary skills they need to fulfill their jobs as they should.

Well, thats true. It feels great to be your own boss than working under your boss. You wont be pressure and you're free to do anything for your own good.

Anyway education is a stepping stone for us to achieve our dreams but it doesnt mean you dont have a chance if you're uneducated. Its just that, for a degree holder people, they have an advantage to get a good paying job. In other words they can save more for capital if they want to start their own business. But if you're wise and determine, there's always a way because nowadays you can educate yourself through courses that can find on the internet.

[Darker45]

This kind of mentality is also present in a lot of people here in my country. There is some truth in it, but I never support it. It is common for somebody here to say, "nobody got rich for going to school." And it usually ends up citing both local and the world's rich and famous; Bill Gates was a dropout, Mark Zuckerberg is a dropout, and so on.

The truth of the matter is that having an education is always better than no education. Education may not make you rich, may not be the key for a successful life, but having no education will significantly lower your chances in life. Education means knowledge and wisdom. Education means qualifying for jobs. Education means holistically-developed personality.

So whether education makes you rich or not is not the issue. Education is a need. Education is an investment. Go for it.

What education truly is, how the current educational system is a big failure, and so on and so forth are different topics altogether.

[vv181]

We can find knowledge, experience, and meaning on everywhere but school. IMO, schools are mainly only beneficial as a social institution, this part is where in your life you are tested whether you can do a basic chore. In the bigger sense, if someone is truly looking for knowledge or education, surely school curricular fixation sometimes is way more outdated. As in result, there is way more profound educational content someone could get when they are browsing around on the internet or simply just directly interacting with life.

Education is not the only key to success anymore...

Do you believe the knowledge gained from education has the potential to change the world?
The development of science can trigger the development of technological innovation and make it easier for people in the world to carry out all their activities.
Of course you've seen computers when visiting libraries, laboratories, malls, and schools, this tool can help anyone in completing their work. This tool was created by people who have tasted the bitter and the sweet while education.
"Education is not the only key to success", but without education you can never enjoy all the conveniences that are facilitated around you.

So is always good to invest in once self, than working under someone, which you won't have time for yourself,

Education is also an investment in the future. People who take the path of education are not only investing in themselves, but they can also provide many benefits and changes for themselves and others as well as for their country.

Yes, we have to find every way to make it happen. So for all who want to become traders/investors. Now there are many golden opportunities to make a lot of money in the field of education and cryptocurrency there are many best investment sites with regular (daily) payments I think that way we will naturally have a lot of activities that we can do.

[salad daging]

For me education is very important because this is our main basis for getting better which is instilled in us by teachers in schools, of course there we know more about education and writing, reading and discipline are important to be friendly again , many people are successful because their education at this university makes them more confident that success is in education even though not all will be successful there, but for me this is an important thing for us to know.

I always have the principle not to be on the index finger of others, which means I choose with my own business, whether it's from investments and other types that I run myself as the boss.

But also remember that being a trader or investor is not an easy thing,
it requires skill and knowledge besides the risk is also great,
what is clear is not that easy to make money both in the field of education and cryptocurrency

[Marykeller]

A country that understands the importance of education places education on one of her top agendas. That's why millions of dollars is been mapped out to facilitate their educational sectors every given year. All because they know and believe that education is the key to a successful life.
It's quite awful that I came from a country that doesn't have much regard for education, making many of her citizens see education as a waste of time and resources. Although education doesn't define their success in life cos they believe that having a fundamental education Is quite necessary to aspire for a successful lifestyle

Education is not same thing as been schooled, for someone can be a non graduate buy still be educated and learned in many ways than just attending online or classroom teaching.
Today we have many that have gone through the fout walls of school but are not educated, can't be counted as educated so ordinarily we can say school is not the only means to education as an end.


On the other hand, for you being a graduate doesn't mean you're entitled to an employment you can be self employed and still do fine.

Just an advise

Regardless of what you say. I still believe an education is good and a person without education will be very lost in his life now and it will always be difficult to make a little awakening in his life. Education is not always about pursuing a title or degree, but education must be interpreted in terms of good thinking, arithmetic, reading, and other things that may be needed by everyone before he does something. Because without basic education, a person will also find it difficult to work and do something that can make him profitable, because he has never practiced or trained to think carefully.

In general, if we talk about EDUCATION, everything is good and a ticket to a better future. That is why we send our kids to school to help them mold into better people and become creative enough to make his/her fortune. But yes, education is not how we measure our life status and capacity, however, it was to know that having a good education will give us a better opportunity as well more than those people who have not. But of course, living in this world doesn't just end up being in school, we still need to work hard and find a way to make money in order to survive.

[boris singer]

It is wrong to say that education is something that is important today because indeed we cannot be separated from education.
But in this case we must be able to distinguish that education and school are different because what I see from the OP's thread refers to school not education because that's how I feel now.
We look for ways to succeed in life, of course we learn from many things, it can be looking at other people, asking some people who have been successful or just looking for sources of tips to be successful. In my opinion it is an educational process because there are lessons to be learned in it.

Op you should understand self investment is also a kind of education, it can either be formal or informal. In the society where we exist today formal education in some developing country is not enough to keep up with the rising inflation and that is where informal education which comes in the form of skill acquisition comes in handy. The both are important to enhance ones innovation and creative mindset.

For education to be effective. People have to believe that reading and learning provide tangible benefits to themselves and society. They have to see the real world application of it.

This is something that is quite important because now the fact is that seeing the current era is increasingly changing literacy like this is sometimes forgotten in some related matters in education even though this is actually the basis in my opinion but the longer the awareness about this is getting eroded.

These days podcasts, youtube and independent content creators provide more valuable resources for education than schools.

For now, especially for several years, otherwise I'm from 2020, I don't watch television very often because I think there are a lot of things that are deviant and far from educational there and I prefer to watch Podcasts on several platforms such as YouTube, where there are indeed several podcasters on the internet. my country is quite good at providing more insight, but for now podcasts must also be filtered, especially for several media because indeed when you see someone succeeds in becoming a podcaster, a lot of people follow, even though the content and weight are clearly very far away and tend not to be mastered in podcasts.

[Iadegbola34]

Schooling in its entirety is only a form of education. You can get educated outside the four walls of a classroom. If you have learnt anything from being on this forum then you've been educated, that explains the difference between schooling and education.

I do think it's a kind of stone age backward thinking, to live our lives in a triangle (Go to school - Get a job - Become rich). We should throw such idea under the carpet and get educated to become the best versions of ourselves. Someone that exhumes knowledge, engage in meaningful discussion, influence quality relationship with people.

we should find all means to be a successful person in life,

As an end note, to attain true success, the end doesn't justify the means most of the time. We shouldn't by all MEANS chase success.
