Education is a commodity

[Fiasem20]

It's is said that education is the key to achieve success,and that statement is true,but always remember to be determined and hardworking.Many individuals think securing a good job after graduation is the success we're talking about,no success is beyond that,if it was that easy then why aren't the graduates employed and start earning from the knowledge they acquired in the universities.Or most persons don't think broadening your perspectives and understanding is a success,no knowledge is a waste.
Don't deprive yourself from being educated irrespective of your gender,back then when female children were deprived from acquiring knowledge, also the cost of education shouldn't discourage you from the educated,there are several affordable ways to acquire knowledge (online courses).

Education is considered a right of every citizen. But has education ever been accessible? Back then only the elite was able to study. Only a few have been able to read and be considered educated. If you are wealthy you can study and even though now education has become more accessible the truth is still only the wealthy can get highest quality of education. But now schools are selling education. They are promoting the culture and prestige of their schools.

Because the truth is there usually are generalizations when it comes to these prestigious schools. For example, Harvard. Someone from harvard would be idolized and thought of someone who is intelligent and probably has a lot of connections. Harvard sells. When you get into these prestigious schools, more than education, you are also paying for the name of the school. But why are we paying for education? To make more money. Education is an investment wherein we expect huge returns after graduation.

Everything now is done with the purpose of making more money in the future. Are there people who go to school just simply wanting to learn? No. Most of the time, students consider the profit they will be making and the job they can get with the degrees they will get.

Nowadays, school is compulsory for everyone, at least in the country where I live. And that's precisely why many students who would prefer never to go to school are forced to do so anyway. After all, the Ministry of Education will then monitor them.
And they're forced to get on the nerves of teachers and everyone who truly wants to learn. Unfortunately, in my opinion, such students would be better off being excused from classes altogether. After all, it's their destiny and their destiny. They shouldn't interfere with others' learning.

Success is subjective.

But if it relates to the graduates and education of each individual, it's vital that they get hired after graduation and as well as getting a good job.

If someone lands a job of their dreams, that means success already for them. In reality, it's just the start of their journey toward their next possible success.

Education is one commodity and assets that is worth buying in this present world we find ourselves today. Even though school may be seen by many as something that is a scam to those who don't know the value of education.  It education is one essential commodity that everyone should as a matter of importance try as much as possible to get. Because everything boils down to the educational level of an individual. You can't grow beyond your educational level in life in general.

The world we find has in one way made those who has gone to school look useless and stupid, because now there are allot of graduates who are roaming the streets hopeless and without jobs. But the role of education is something no body should try and undermine because, education they say is the key.

I don't really think getting a job is that difficult if the graduates are open to relocate in some other city which has higher job opportunities. The only reason why they end up on streets is because they are either too lazy to find a job or are addicted to alcohol or drugs and prefer spending time in these addictions. Education is really important at least when it comes to job because every job will ask you for a educational degree and without a degree it will be difficult to get a high paying job profile.

You can get some basic jobs like working in a call centre or working as a back-office entry staff if you don't have a degree and these jobs will never be good paying. If we manage to graduate with a nice course, we can always find way better jobs and even the work life will be well balanced. All we need to do is invest in education so it will pay for itself in future.

You're actually correct,just as you said education is subjective likewise success also depends on diverse factors.Let's be realistic, everyone wants a comfortable lifestyle right?but the bitter truth is success doesn't only come from getting a job probably securing a white collar job,but I'm not against the fact that it isn't a right decision to make.Now let me give a clear explanation of what I meant earlier about success,an individual graduating from the higher institution can also be referred to as success because it's just like pursuing a goal and fulfilling it at the end.
Nowadays,the society is so messed up in such a way that graduates get employed not by their good grades but by connection,so your primary goal for being educated should not only be centered on the government for employment but rather a destiny has been fulfilled.

Of course, everybody is going to school in order to secure a better job in future. I don't see it as a bad thing. Imagine that you are a first class graduate without a job, how will you feel. The government is corrupt which has caused lack of job opportunities for graduates. The fact is that, if you are brilliant you can go to any kind of school and still be the best.

What you're saying is clearly evident in today's world and even in the lives of those who came before us. I often see intelligent people who attended various schools, but ultimately still become successful through their own work because they are able to create jobs for others without having to rely on the government in their own country. Meanwhile, people with mediocre intelligence still have to rely on government agencies, relying on their own educational credentials.

Since class four, I have been reading a concept expansion, “Education is the backbone of the nation”. But I was young then. I did not understand how education becomes the backbone? I memorized it just for 5 marks.
When I grew up, when I searched for the reasons behind the development of countries like America, China and Russia, I understood why “education” is called the “backbone of the nation”. There is a shortage of good teachers in all the government schools and colleges in our country. However, the good teachers who are there do not give enough importance to the class. At the end of the month, they turn the pages and finish the book in exchange for government salary. They do not care whether the students understand or not. At one time, all the students got tense, how to improve their results? Finding no other way, they were forced to start private/coaching. There are different types of private, along with the types of amounts. If you study in a batch, there is one rate, if you study alone, there is another rate, if you study at home, there is another rate, and so on.

Students are now treated like commodities in our society, where education is viewed as a commodity and everyone seeks to profit from it.  You must realise that the true goal of education is undermined when you view students as commodities because you won't think twice about doing anything illegal for your personal gain. On the one hand, education has remarkable social utility on the far side of employability, such as citizenship &  reproving analysis ability &  its ability to empower individuals to change the world.  Many critics believe that education should be protected for the overall good of society, lest it become a commercial commodity

I agree that schools are an asset and worth buying, but provided that the system in the school is really effective to make us think smart and innovative, we know how schools are designed for human workers in some countries, and we just need to not buy learning in schools that adhere to such a system.

Education can be valuable depending on the curriculum and system so many parents are blind in choosing education for children, also look at the development of children's thinking after school, children who can think independently always come up with different views and are always interested in something new to develop according to their imagination.

But bad education makes our children become mental blocks and cannot compete in the world of work and the business world.

Education should not be done solely because one can get a better paying job, it is supposed to be make us knowledgeable and with that we should be making money.

Anyway, I guess we are passed the era of prestigious schools and universities, now people are not guaranteed a job solely because of their certificate but companies started preferring the candidates who are capable of completing the job that they are hired for.

[Iamgoat]

Making money does require you have certain knowledge and that knowledge is what you are going to be paid for and that is why you see that people go to school to become employable due to the supposed knowledge they have been able to achieve from the school, they have been able to build some knowledge that makes them imply but now education had gone beyond the four walls of a school or a supposed formal educational structure, now people get educated through various means of which at the end of the day they still become very experienced and qualified for the job.

You are right with what you said. There as no be time when making real money has been about the knowledge or skill you bring to the table like now. Unlike in the past when having just a certificate was enough, now such certificate has to be backed by the skill and knowledge you acquired. Back then in the past, the main road to success was seen to be through school, especially in this part of the world, all you need to be successful is to study your books hard enough to pass exams and gain your degree, after then the next will be a good job and good salary follows. Now, you have to go a step further to learn a skill like learning coding on YouTube, trading on Twitter spaces or crypto from telegram groups ect and you may end up earning way way beyond someone with first class degree. The simple reason is tied to the fact, your employees nowadays do not hire you or pay you for your school name, they pay for what you can actually offer to the table for their progress or of the company. Once you can solve their problem faster and better, nobody cares whether you went to university or you thought yourself.

These days getting a college degree doesn't guarantee that you'd get a high paying job. You could get a job that would help you pay the bills, but for many people it is not enough for most of life's wants.

That said, there is nothing wrong in acquiring knowledge in order to use it to earn a living. If you do not acquire the knowledge to a satisfactory level/degree, then you wouldn't even be able to harness its benefits. But as long as you have put in the work to get the knowledge, then you can go ahead and start earning through it, and i don't care if that was the idea you had from the beginning. What's so wrong in that?

There is nothing wrong with that and for the fact that is how most people does that but when they have such mindset then they will get into a shell and just get into the same lifestyle for their remaining life so the dream of getting rich will never become a reality though, also after certain point the job will become boring when we solely does that for money which is why we see stress due to the work.

But imagine if someone enjoy the work they can do all day with more productivity.

Isn't it always been that way? prestigious school boost your reputation so you are expected to pay higher tuition.
It's a big market that have endless demand, everybody want the best school to attend and willing to go to great length to make that happen.

I always liked self taught more but won't deny that going into prestigious school will opens up a massive networking opportunity you never had.

[AmaGold70]

The world is advancing in technology and you need education to keep up, you are right to say that education is a commodity but it is worth it so do what ever you can to purchase it for yourself because you really need it. The good part is that it is now very affordable to purchase unlike before when it was only the high and mighty had access to good education but now even the average in society can afford education, I have often hear people say that education is a scam and they don't need it but they find it difficult to fill a simple form to create a bank account for themselves. In every aspect of our lives in this generation education is needed to make money so yes education is indeed an investment and you don't even have to work in an office to make money so it's important to be educated.

Education is a right and a necessity but it’s not the only basis of success. I know a lot of people wish to have pursued education but due to certain life circumstances they are forced to go into the workforce immediately. This doesn’t mean they are any less successful though.

Education is only a right when you have money to those that don't have money to afford education they don't have the right to education till they make money to afford it. I have thought about this many times and sometimes I wonder why they say education is among the fundamental human rights when you can't get quality education you want if you don't have money. I agree with you that education is a commodity because what is considered as a right should be free without exchanging anything for it.

When we don’t pay a price, we don’t really feel the value of education itself. If we don’t have the money, we spend a lot of time searching for the information we need at minimal cost or for free, and that becomes our price for the knowledge we gain. We value it because we paid a high price with our time and effort.If we have the financial means,and we pay, then understanding the value of knowledge also makes us more responsible and committed to learning. If everything were easily accessible, it would simply lose its importance and value.

From the title of this post, I think I will not border much about all it's content , though many will debunked my angel of view towards this post. Op your title defeat educational systems in our society today, if any will debunked this, in the past government, subsidized fees and others tuition paid in school to achieve elevating and alleviating its citizens from ignorance. They aid in building good structures, and all basics requirements needed to the functionality of the system but it's not longer same today, both the government and the teachers are busy making money seeling degrees, most public schools hardly see basics of the education apparatus to acertained the good education.

Secondly today the monetary inducement by the government and teachers has make generation of many private school who extort money without sound education as they claimed of tax from government, even the government agency couldn't monitor or regulate their activities any more as everyone operates as they desires.education today mostly the third world countries are more of this commodity because many pass through this school achieving nothing as the impact of education has not reflected on them not on their own willingness but as result of  lacking the required tools to achieve it.

There are various course of study that may seem deeply of service to the society , those who goes through the educational systems where they have spend beyond measure to attain that height, has overruled the service because no sacrifice without rewards, have monetized their service. You can only earn education through hard work where your body and knowledge is put to work or get it through money paid, with this I am convinced that the title differ not from the happening of education in many society today.

The question is whether Education is a Privilege or a Right? We all know that in many ways, education greatly helps individuals, whether rich or poor. Right?

Because we also know that it can help with economics and even lifetime learning in terms of our lives. And all parents around the world are doing their best to send their children to school,
within their means, because it's their obligation as parents
