With the rise of social media, many people are now making money through these platforms. It’s great to see more diverse ways to earn an income. People are able to make good lifestyle. But this trend is causing some to think that education is no longer necessary. Is it creating a bubble that education isn’t needed? Is it right?
For some, it’s easy to say, “Forget a degree,” especially if they have support to fall back on. But for those without this privilege, a degree is something essential and crucial. Might realize these at a later stage. At least if not a degree, skill sets are required.
Education has some hidden benefits. The skills it builds may not seem immediately useful, but they help in ways we don’t always see right away.
For eg, you may wonder what algebra or Pythagoras’s theorem have to do with real life. Even I have no clue what they do in life. But they teach that us patience, that not every problem has to be solved. Some can be ignored.
Base your choice on what you want for your future, not on someone else’s influence. After all, you’re the one who’s going to live with it.
Cheers!
