At first we thought that was ALL it, the introduction of the Internet and it first most dominant sphere web2 brought in websites, social media and apps. I can still recall that quote by Elon Musk; ‘you can become anything with YouTube’. The advantage of this website without doubt was its vast information, especially quoting, ‘ it's video sourced’ opened doors to learn from home.
I just read through such related Threads; a user questioning if there is a need to pursue degrees in 2025. I got his views or maybe I think. The fact is that this siloed industry has been broken down. You can check back on what Elon said in my first paragraph. I feel there are much more opportunities in investing what one has rather than using it to pursue degrees upon degrees. Many of them have entered obsoletion.
Am I against education? Personally,I have always been against ‘education as schooling’, a very bad transferred mentality that has kept many stuck or trapped in a financial rat race. education is meant to be seen as an opportunity for awareness.
Those in the system want to make their money so they keep this misinformation as a continuous trend. How many graduates do we have? How many of them are working with those papers? Adding to that, even getting paid what is due them.

Personally I don't think I will be running around looking for papers upon papers to pile up as an achievement. Anyway many are running after this to climb the pay ladder. This is also another mentality that needs to be corrected; the work for money feud that has spread like wildfire overtime.
Very few understand the Vice strategy; ‘money working for you’. Very few also understand leverages; that they could get what they need ahead of time and build on it.
If you were to ask me one of the setbacks I can shake my head is growing up without having a financial adviser at a very tender age. Someone who would have Sat me down and looked me in the face and said, ‘Dani, money is a slave’. I have dug deeper and deeper to get more insight.
I am sure I would have been at least a millionaire if not even a billionaire by NOW. Not late anyway, I have had to pass through some financial and life storms to get this understanding.
It is something I will have to pass down to my coming generation and yes, anyone out there who is willing to listen. What is life's achievement? freedom, period.
This,that, up, down, most are absolutely a waste of time. Where would your fortune have been assuming you were enlightened enough to buy some Bitcoin a decade and a half ago?

Ok, maybe you would not have been able to hold on till date but having at least 1000 BTC and selling at even a hundred dollars was life changing.
The truth is, many of us may not be able to make up to 50 million in cash with our papers, something we struggled for during the peak of our lives.
The idea also centering this article is not putting all your eggs in one basket. Especially when the basket you are depending upon is wearing. The market focus for wealth changed many years ago.
entrepreneurs have dominated this chain, it is not all about what you have studied that really matters. The assets in demand currently are no longer human but ‘money to force output’.
That is why you can't compare a share holder no matter how dumb he or she may be with an employee.
To conclude let me add, the old time mentality has been that to become an investor or a ‘saver’ has most from the sphere have become, you have to first pursue papers. The view is that through those papers, you can get employed, have money to save and invest and retire happily. Cut this Circle, it's an old woman's tale.
Start your investment NOW to compound your long term rewards. Nothing bad is education, nevertheless, make a smart Split that will save you many future hassle, don't summarize yourself on a probability. ‘The road well walked is weedless’---dani-EL
