Way to go. Kylie Jenner is worth a staggering $900m courtesy of her social media followers - selling her own make up products to them.

The bottom line, the success metric in Life, is money. Attending Oxford, Harvard and University of Bla Bla BLAREST motherfucking bla and graduating with a degree in Bleh Bleh Blehest of Bleh wouldn't make the world regard you as successful, even if you graduated with first class. It's a joke really, how education - in the sense of pursuing degree certification - is a complete waste of time.

Oxford student who attended £9,600-a-year nursery and four public schools abandons law career... so she can be a star on Instagram
Grace Beverley, 21 shelved plans for law career to be a Instagram influencer


Under the name GraceFitUK, she already has more than a million followers online
She shares exercise tips and uses social media to sell her own fitness products and endorse other brands with sponsored videos.

She attended a £9,600-a-year nursery and no fewer than four public schools, then won a place at Oxford.

But well-heeled Grace Beverley, 21, has now shelved plans for a career in law – to become a full-time ‘Instagram influencer’ instead.

Under the name GraceFitUK, she already has more than a million followers online, where she shares exercise tips in tight sportswear. She uses social media to sell her own fitness products – and endorse other brands with sponsored videos.

Miss Beverley went to Oxford after getting an A*, two A's and one B at A-level at the prestigious St Paul’s Girls’ School in west London. This followed periods at three other private schools during a six-figure education that began at a bilingual nursery, La Petite Ecole Francaise, which now costs £9,600 per year.

Her father, Peter, runs his own business consultancy while her mother, Victoria, is a senior curator at the Victoria and Albert Museum.

However, instead of pursuing a high-powered professional career like many of her peers, Miss Beverley hopes to emulate the likes of Zoella – the British social media superstar worth an estimated £2.5million.

Social media stars – or ‘influencers’ – earn money through partnerships with brands which pay them to advertise their products. They can make up to £100 per post if they have up to 10,000 followers, while for those with a fanbase of 100,000, the money can rise to £350 per post.


Miss Beverley, who already posts around four sponsored videos a month, has 366,000 followers on YouTube and 837,000 on Instagram – meaning she could be commanding considerably higher fees.

The Oxford music student is due to complete her degree at St Peter’s College next year, and had intended to take a professional qualification afterwards to begin a career in law or the City. However, she has now decided to pursue her online work instead.

The undergraduate began posting photos online during her A-levels to track her exercise progress, and even blocked ‘around 400’ people she knew from accessing the page out of embarrassment. ‘I wanted to get fit for summer and didn’t expect it to continue,’ she said. Miss Beverley insisted that her social media commitments have not affected her studies. ‘If it’s a really stressful week and all I can post is a selfie then that’s that, it’s not the end of the world,’ she said.

‘I will never give the university a reason to think that they are not my top priority.

‘I’m extra-careful and extra-diligent and try extra hard in all my work. I can handle it and I can handle the stress. I like being busy. I’ve worked so hard to get to this point ... I don’t want to look back and think “I could have done so much better”.’

For someone schooling in Oxford I guess she wasn't smart enough to kill two birds with one stone: attain a law degree then become an insta hostar.

It’s called privilege my friend. If you have that + dad’s money you can afford to do this. Being light black also helps.
A lot!

Having a degree or two or three or even 2 Master’s degrees does not guarantee success in life.
That said
Being in the right country does help
So does having connections.

She comes from a wealthy family and whilst she isn’t taking the traditional route, it’s still a generative career path.

Although I’ll always say, if you’ve started a degree, you may as well finish it, unlesss it’s completely out of your hands

You mean she should abandon her law career so that she can slay on instagram.

Social media is here to stay. She is obviously going to make more money as a social media marketer than her colleagues who are practicing law. If you understand how the internet works, you will know there are lots of potentials online.

I know of a naija girl here who has a YouTube channel of 1.4 million subscribers, she just shares beauty tips with women. She also talks about all these bleaching creams and co. Sometimes when I look at what the small girl has achieved, I marvel.

You really need to open up your mind. All those conventional careers no longer pay well now especially if you are the ambitious type who wants serious money and not just "chop money"
