First of all, it must be acknowledged that education is very important in life, with education it will make someone able to think more broadly and act well. The problem of rich and poor is a nature that occurs naturally. So how can someone be considered rich? I don't think an educated person will suffer a very bad fate, but at least he will be useful even if he only gets a relatively average job. So I don't agree if people compare something that is irrelevant and education has nothing to do with the fate of being rich or poor.
No one doubts that education is a source of knowledge that must be sought, but education does not guarantee that someone will become richer. Wealth is not obtained naturally because people have to prepare except when their parents inherit it. Education has nothing to do with wealth and poverty, but education is part of the way for someone to build relationships. With good relationships, it will be much easier for us to develop a business so that wealth will be closer to us.

Education is seen only as a step for someone to seek knowledge and education is a foundation for people to seek insight in a particular field. If the relationship between education can make someone richer then there are many people who are not educated who are also successful in becoming rich from the business activities and other things they undertake so this comparison is not relevant.
