I was talking with somebody someday and he said he will not waste his time going to school achieving degree. He was like driving the point that degrees are probably useless to him to consider wasting time on and that not until he acquire degrees before he can be succeasful in life.

My question is that is he right?

It depends. That's why each person has to do the research for themselves, from inner inquiry to outer efforts to clarify this. What is right for one person may be wrong for another.

You are right. I tried agrueing with him anyway that day but the more i tried the more he seems determined. Probably he has made up his mind. You are right. What is right for one person might be wrong to another person

I feel that I was really lucky that I did not choose to pursue a Master's Degree for many of the reason you state. I really could not afford it and the reality was that the experience I was gaining from my job was being the best schooling I could have imagined. I was also working for entrepreneurial spirits that did not even have a college degree yet were able to setup up big businesses. They let me be by their side while I was 22-23 years old and just listen... That was my best education!

Hi
This post really speaks to me. I know someone thinking of going back to school to pursue a masters degree. Life is complicated, and you never know if your giving the right advice. Your article reassured me I was on the right track.
Thanks

Feel encouraged to share the link with her. (Maybe to the version on whaleshares though, so she doesn’t see your reference to her 😉

Hi
I am unfamiliar with whaleshares, but I will google it now, it sounds like an opportunity to scale my earnings?

It's very similar to STEEM. It's a fork. But they made some changes. You can see this post at https://whaleshares.io/@indigoocean/considering-grad-school-read-this-first

Thanks I will check it out. I didn’t know there were forks of Steem!
