I really want know if getting more degrees can make life financially better because I come from a country where their are no job and I have seen people that the only thing they can do in life is to read books, getting more degrees attaining all these degrees yet no still go job for them with good pay. Do think people who read in a region with slim job opportunities are doing the right thing?
Having atain a greater hight in educational qualifications is not really bad, but excess of it becomes a problem. Many people just want to be honoured for their educational qualification or academic excellent, there by optaining more and more without thinking otherwise. Morover all what ever you read in life will just end up in a paper, and if you are Dead it becomes useless to your family. I think it's good to aquare degree and knowledge about a certain field and put it in practice to make a reasonable thing that will be useful. Who knows you might discover or invent something that will be useful to every body and you will never be forgotten, from generation to generation. Rather than reading an still never got recognized. Mack zugaberg was never a too much degree holder, but his invention of Facebook has been a legacy.
Indeed, education is very important, but it is not a criterion for success. A person can make money from different source which is not related at all to his academic discipline. One thing i must say is that academic knowledge helps to manage wealth. After having all the wealth if you don't have good knowledge on calculations; simple algebraic and arithmetic, statistics and probability then it may hinder your progress. Also, if you lack communication skills and writing skills then it would be worst. So, this is the reason why educations are important for any pursuit in life.
