Are we saying a degree is some kind of fake promise? hat paper isn't everything. It's about effort, skill development, and effort. The game is continuously changing, and the world is different now. Education isn't simply about career preparation; it's about developing quick-thinking skills
You claim school's about information, not money? In our economy, knowledge is power. How you use knowledge, think outside the box, create agreements, and discover solutions is more important than memorising facts. Can you get rich without a degree? Yes, some do. These are outliers. Let's not pretend that illiteracy leads to achievement. Being smart, driven, and adaptable mentally is key
Education is not intended for us to get rich quickly, but education is a provision for us to be able to find a path that can lead us to something good. However, the problem is that now there are many people who misinterpret education, for example in my environment there are many parents who still say to give their children a high education so that they can easily get a decent job and in my opinion that is an inappropriate mindset.
Here a person's strong desire must also not be forgotten, because I see that some successful people are people who work hard with unyielding effort. Even though many are successful because of the privilege of being born into a rich family, for example, they just need to continue what their family has.
