I agree with the author that knowledge and well-being are tied. But it is the desire and aspiration to learn and take all new things that ultimately leads to financial well-being.

The school teaches how the sciences, objects and situations in the world are called, the university teaches how to filter the flow of information from the world and take what you really need. The person aspiration to endlessly educate from the world and APPLY it for the benefit of himself and the world, including the financial stability, is what really should be counted.

Information is around you and all for FREE, the only thing you need - is effort and the ability to filter information, find reliable sources. While knowledge is power that is only true if you have a way to put that knowledge to practical use for the benefit of your own and the world.

Thats why huge market players like Binance and Coinmarketcap spreading educational materials in their Academies - they know what smart people really appreciate
