You take style wrong sha. School is good for all, and school like we know it uni, college, etc is a familiarization of a subject or an area of something; but what happened world wide in many places is that many graduates thought they had finished going to school, then complacency sets in and desire fizzles out. School is supposed to get you familiar with an area/subject; and graduation of that subject/area is suppose to give companies or start-ups the confidence in hiring you and betting that you can grow and expand with them because you at least have SOME familiarity of what they are about. The problem is, most graduates think they know it all, so in return, most companies(small or big) have little patience with graduates and push them to fail by making them feel like they need to know it all. An OG once told me that the kind of people he avoids being around are the people that always claim to know it all and also say they don't need extra knowledge. Anyway am speaking about foreign schools; and then again, the times are changing, unlike before where only a few attempted to go or were opportune d to go, now though, is more people going in many fashions/ways, also with the programmable intelligence of machines, i think is still an ongoing experiment in the works. As for nigeria, na sorting to pass courses, sorting to get jamb form, sorting to enter campus, sorting to graduate, and the other suffer head and stupid activities wey come with am. So that is what nigerian graduates are celebrating, the experience, not really the courses or majors they claimed to study. If na street smart matter, dem dey on board well. And it reflects with all the sec to sec crimes occurring, 98 bad news, 0.3% good news, the rest others wey fit be bad or good. It is still a fact that we still need enuff experts to come and help nigeria in even building a two person two way over head bridge. If naija presido or many leaders fall ill, they will rather spend months outside naija to treat themselves. * There is more knowledge after graduation. 1 Like |

I detest the whole idea behind schooling. The only type of persons who will really enjoy our current school system most especially our ASUU coordinated Nigerian higher institutions, are people who love to cram. |

HeyCorleone:spot on..that's why everyone was gifted differently. If you don't work under someone, how will you learn the rudimentaries of what you should learn when you finally own your own company. Entrepreneurship is good but you need to go to school so you can apply some of the paper work or text book knowledge with everyday life experiences and the ability to manage people,your employees and your customers.essentially every form of education has a role to play in adding to your expertise, wisdom and knowledge. Its just like saying fathers are more important than mothers or mothers are more important than fathers.each of them have a role to play in your success story so thank you for that .I've had enough bollsheet from this entrepreneurial motivational speakers...jeez |

bluefilm:there is nothing that will ever replace the gap of school education, that is why you will always easily notice and spot the difference between a rich illiterate business man or business and the educated business man and business. That's why you will see an illiterate business man being cheated by something very obvious and he won't easily know or recognize it. Now let me leave you with this. Why do you think all these Rich illiterate Alaba traders who after primary education were into business marry women with masters degree and sponsor their kids to universities abroad for an MBA? Because they know money or success in business cannot fill the gap of education and they also want someone who can help them in the paper knowledge part 1 Like 1 Share |

godwinstringed1: These your points are pure fallacies, unsubstantiated fact, due to faulty reasoning , or purely as a result of your ignorance. it shows the level of your education, which leads to these faulty generalization. Your reasoning is totally warped and you lack basic intellectual capacity to argue intelligently. If you're a Nigerian graduate, its OK to reason like this since most of you buy your way out of the system. I. Education or going to school is not meant to make you rich. If you're aiming to be rich or wealthy you've to devise your own path, either starting a business or acquiring special skills which gives you enough money in order to be rich. II. Educational system from primary, secondary, to tertiary, universities, polytechnics are all designed to transfer knowledge. its now left for individual to decide when and how to use the knowledge acquired. The application of knowledge acquired is how we defined those who are really educated or not. if after secondary education you felt you've acquired enough one can decide to leave the system. III. There are different types of education, formal and informal education. Evidence of formal education is the issuance of paper certificate which most of you are crazy about. How many of you will go to university just to acquire the knowledge without the paper certificate? I'm sure non. so my point is many Nigerians just hide under the paper without nothing to offer. if you're really educated you don't need to show any paper . Just research and proffer solutions to problemd in your field of study. How many of you can do that? III. No where in the world you become an expert out of school. Despite book knowledge you still need a form of apprenticeship or tutelage. Experience count. IV . Education is the best thing that has ever happen to mankind. without education we won't have computers, internet etc . These are products of education, research etc. We still need. more Nigerian's to be educated. Real Education bring innovations . Education don't make people become lazy. No knowledge is a waste and no time is wasted in the process of acquiring knowledge. Education will reform individual and make him / her better . 1 Like |

Re: 5 Reasons Why Schooling May Never Make You Rich by Nobody: 8:52pm On Jan 16, 2019 |
SAMBARRY:nobody said school is useful. it is useful in many respects. But as far as making money is concerned the present school system is more meant to produce employees than real wealthy men. Now, if your next response is half as stupid as your previous ones, I shall not respond to you any longer. |

Baseless post. Mr. O. P go and show this ya post to those parents who are willing to spend huge amounts for their kids schooling. Going to school gives you a broader chance to hit it big in future than you not going to school.. A kid who goes to school has a better shot at success than the kid whose parents failed to send him to school. |

I think the OP must have read one book and he got carried away. And the next thing that came to his mind was to open a thread on nairaland on sensitive matter like this to see if he can get people to "reason with him" according to Paul okoye of Psquare. My dear, Education is very very important. If a larger number of Nigerians were educated..... honestly, we won't be in this social,economic and political mess. Please embrace education, preach it to all...... education is good. No Alternative. If the OP wasn't educated.....we won't be talking about this thread. Plz OP appreciate the benefits you have derived from education and stop depriving our younger generation from benefiting too. Take care! |
