....
I agree - knowledge is the way to prosperity one should keep educating oneself
The more skill and education one gets the more refined the person become.

The only question is whether a person who has received an education can then realize his potential within his own country, or whether he has the opportunity to go to another country and realize his potential there.
Unfortunately, there is a good "bad example" - the USSR. It seems that education was not the worst, and even higher education was not bad - many students came from many countries to receive it. But for the local population - the inhabitants of the USSR, there were actually no ways to realize their potential! Yes, there were some institutions that designed something, developed something - but 99% of it was primitivism, which turned into a strong technological, industrial, medical and other lag behind developed Western countries. And initiatives - if not punished, then "put in a folder", and then they forgot about them ... And one of the reasons is the lack of a normal competitive market in the country.

I met some very cheap educated people and some very outstanding poor people
Education does not make you a human being - your upbringing does.

Yes, I also think that education doesn't always teach people to live. Sometimes people know what to live. There are some places where education has no value. I have some places where there is no work without education. So it can be said that not everything works in all places. But Along with education money is needed. I have seen some people who have no education but they have money and they are in a very good position in the society. I have seen some educated people who are in a very bad position because they don't have money.
