I agree with education not being worth much in the long run.
I’m still a few credits short of my BA in business, but I’ve managed three multi-million dollar enterprises at this point in my life, so it’s kind of a mute point for me at this late date, don’t ya think? :)
As with ‘liberation’ we’ve been sold a bill of goods when it comes to a formal education, too!
Managed three enterpises, and yet still short of the BA? Didja need the BA? ;-) Or was it a paper requirement?
Just taking the opposing argument. I have spent years getting “educated”, in technical areas that required the training, and legal areas that perhaps did not (but only as a paper requirement). It seems to have been a benefit in my era, but nowadays, I’m not so sure. The failures of elementary education system are, in many instances, now part of the advanced education system.
