Education doesn't necessarily mean knowledge and many rich people don't even have a degree because they thought its useless and not completely related to knowledge and skills. Education is the key for survival not for success so don't get confused between both cause it is different and knowledge is powerful in my opinion.
Unemployment is everywhere and lot of reasons are there why many doesn't have jobs but currently the fear of recession caused many companies including google, facebook, twitter, tesla, etc fired thousands of their employees to survive their winter. For us, we need to keep updating our skills so you won't be fired or can get a job in no time.
