You should love education even more because that is the way to end and get out of poverty for most. It is these basic logic skills that allow you to think about money, the future, and everything else important in your life that let you get ahead. My parents didn't have much coming to this country but they had some education and that combined with opportunity will give you best chance out of poverty imho.
Your humble opinion is perfect. Education though not necessarily will make you rich, it will give you a shot against poverty. Whether capitalism or communism, education is still key. By the way, no system or arrangements like someone commented in this forum, will ever end poverty. Poverty has been here the longest anyone can remember and will be here till the end of time.
