Being educated can contribute to success but it is not the key to success. Success is a word that people find have different meaning. What you consider success may not have the same status to another person. If it is success defined in terms of how much someone owns, then definitely it cannot be education alone, because there will be uneducated men and women who have managed to find success in their various fields. Education is important because it can help affect the way a person thinks. School is not also education, people have attended schools and still do not act educated. Education can make you a better member of the community.
