I believe a successful career does not only depend on a good education. This is not necessarily a college education but one in which you become an expert in whatever field you choose to work in.

Most time but not all the time. It's also interesting to know that most millionaires of this life are not the one with Ph.D. Most inventors of this life are not professors either. Why are people of such a caliber still lives at the mercy of the 'ignorant' men. Educated illiterate you might say.... God have mercy

Go to the markets you will then count millions of uneducated people, who had always regretted their action of not going to school. you are counting few educated millionaires in Nigeria, while there are millions of uneducated poor. most of Nigeria millionaires are degree holders, some after making it in life they go back to school because they know the importance, why do you think Bill Gate and others sent their children to school, if education isn't the key. the fact is most university graduates live a far better life that most primary or secondary school graduate. go to the street and you will find many suffering, begging. stop bringing in few lucky uneducated millionnaire.

How I wish I can lay my hands on Bill Gate's speech when he was invited to speak at Harvard Business School to the graduating students. What he said will shock you my brother.........

Have you read the story of Michael Faraday and Benjamin Franklin among other few I will not mention here.....their lives is a proof of what I'm talking about.

Don't get me wrong, education is good but what is the essence of all 'science' without an 'art' application. You are a Nigerian, right? Check the data......
Re: Does Success In Life Depends On Good Education by Karlifate: 12:11pm On Jul 27, 2020
Bill Gates was making straight 'As' in his courses, especially Mathematics.
He had to drop out of Harvard inorder to develop his "MICRO-SOFT" idea, so that no one beats him to it.

His father, William Henry Gates was a seasoned Attorney, while his mother was an ex-school teacher, before proceeding to work @ First Interstate Bank.

Just because he dropped out, doesn't mean he's not educated. He dropped "a good formal education" that gives you a degree for "a good informal education" that solves practical problems. kiss

You are implying "formal education" in this case, because we have other forms of education.

EDUCATION is more than SCHOOLING

Good education does not mean having a PhD: a PhD holder may be badly educated while the person who did not even go to any school will be highly educated by just reading books and self learning. Michael Faraday did not even go to school (the parents couldn't afford school for him) he only taught himself by reading books brought for binding where he was an apprentice binder. Today we have many inventions courtesy of Faraday!
Being successful in life requires serious hardwork which may not necessarily be taught in schools. Actually, schools will teach you how to follow set of rules, any deviation from the rules will mean failure! School of success is a personal school where Hardwork, Endurance and Perseverance are some of the teachers. Ironically, Failure is one of the very strict teachers in the school of success embarassed

This is Bill Gates biography I pulled from Wikipedia:

At 13, he enrolled in the private Lakeside prep school,[30][31] where he wrote his first software program.[32] When he was in the eighth grade, the Mothers' Club at the school used proceeds from Lakeside School's rummage sale to buy a Teletype Model 33 ASR terminal and a block of computer time on a General Electric (GE) computer for the students.[33] Gates took an interest in programming the GE system in BASIC, and he was excused from math classes to pursue his interest. He wrote his first computer program on this machine, an implementation of tic-tac-toe that allowed users to play games against the computer. Gates was fascinated by the machine and how it would always execute software code perfectly.[34] After the Mothers Club donation was exhausted, Gates and other students sought time on systems including DEC PDP minicomputers. One of these systems was a PDP-10 belonging to Computer Center Corporation (CCC) which banned for the summer Gates, Paul Allen, Ric Weiland, and Gates's best friend and first business partner Kent Evans, after it caught them exploiting bugs in the operating system to obtain free computer time.[35][23]

The four students formed the Lakeside Programmers Club to make money.[23] At the end of the ban, they offered to find bugs in CCC's software in exchange for extra computer time. Rather than use the system remotely via Teletype, Gates went to CCC's offices and studied source code for various programs that ran on the system, including Fortran, Lisp, and machine language. The arrangement with CCC continued until 1970 when the company went out of business.

The following year, a Lakeside teacher enlisted Gates and Evans to automate the school's class-scheduling system, providing them computer time and royalties in return. The duo worked diligently in order to have the program ready for their senior year. Towards the end of their junior year, Evans was killed in a mountain climbing accident, which Gates has described as one of the saddest days of his life. Gates then turned to Allen who helped him finish the system for Lakeside.[23]

At 17, Gates formed a venture with Allen called Traf-O-Data to make traffic counters based on the Intel 8008 processor.[36] In 1972, he served as a congressional page in the House of Representatives.[37][38] He was a National Merit Scholar when he graduated from Lakeside School in 1973.[39] He scored 1590 out of 1600 on the Scholastic Aptitude Tests (SAT) and enrolled at Harvard College in the autumn of 1973.[40][41] He chose a pre-law major but took mathematics and graduate level computer science courses.[42] While at Harvard, he met fellow student Steve Ballmer. Gates left Harvard after two years while Ballmer stayed and graduated magna cum laude. Years later, Ballmer succeeded Gates as Microsoft's CEO and maintained that position from 2000 until his resignation in 2014.[43][44]

Gates devised an algorithm for pancake sorting as a solution to one of a series of unsolved problems[45] presented in a combinatorics class by professor Harry Lewis. His solution held the record as the fastest version for over 30 years, and its successor is faster by only 2%.[45][46] His solution was formalized and published in collaboration with Harvard computer scientist Christos Papadimitriou.[47]

Gates remained in contact with Paul Allen and joined him at Honeywell during the summer of 1974.[48] In 1975, the MITS Altair 8800 was released based on the Intel 8080 CPU, and Gates and Allen saw the opportunity to start their own computer software company.[49] Gates dropped out of Harvard that same year. His parents were supportive of him after seeing how much he wanted to start his own company.[50] He explained his decision to leave Harvard: "if things hadn't worked out, I could always go back to school. I was officially on leave."[51]

Do you mean formal or informal education?
Give more clarity to it.

Homework can some of the time be truly constraining for understudies. It keeps them up throughout the night and sets aside the entirety of their effort to concentrate in a casual climate. We concede that it's a significant piece of the scholarly course and is fundamental for the development of the understudies, it could adversely affect their profitability also. Your points could obscure and leave center in case you're investing a lot of energy inundated in the course readings.

The traditional school as we know it, isn't education. Is going to a four wall classroom education? No. We must First define education and going to school first
