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
the advice you say is very good but we come back to the sentence everyone has their own fortune and life it's not an exact science. I have a neighbor who is 60 years old, he is a successful person who did not finish high school but because he is good at trading, he is able to succeed with his trading skills. currently, he has 7 supermarkets that have quite a lot of customers.
our parents teach their children that only people who go to school will be successful so we study hard but over time, the reality of life will make us realize that what makes a person rich is not high education but ability, smart work, experience, and also the person's determination that will make him successful.
