Do they teach you life skills in school? Apart from those that read home economics, many of us were taught things that will enable us work for others efficiently
Re: What Life Skills Are Not Taught In School? by wwwtortoise(m):
Schooling/Academics is what we have here in Nigeria which is good for a dunce with slave mentality.

The real deal is education. It liberates the mind and unlocks your potentials.

Know the difference and know peace.

1) Your papa no get connection so na all man to himself

2) No be person wey sabi book pass dey get better job and no be person wey get First Class dey get money pass

3) Success does not only come from the pages of your textbooks, Being successful needs making friends, a lot of reasonable friends that has the urge to be successful

4) Most of your lecturers graduate with Third class and were doing malpractice during their set but na those ones dey wicked/strict pass

5) The best legacy your parents will leave for you is money so you won't build from the scratch

6) That the world has evolved from those period they tell you to read and get a job, now it's how innovative are you?
Example: Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Steve Jobs...

7) No be everybody go make through school, some go make am through business, some politics, some sports and some entertainment

Las las, person wey put all his effort and energy in a dream will surely make it. He just needs perseverance and hard work and a little grace

school is to acquire knowledge.

How to make money and hustling
Re: What Life Skills Are Not Taught In School? by Seniorwriter(m):
Conversion of Knowledge to monetary values!
Nigerian Educational systems are devoid of money value and management curriculum.
So much concentration and orientation on White collar job rather than Blue collar setup procedure.
There is a need for inclusion of some sorts towards earning trainings or entrepreneurship!

Risk Management is part of educational curriculum!

For me, it's financial skills... Look, by the time exam deal with you and bunch of materials yet to purchase, you'll hate Nigerian schools... I almost died in my 400 level... So school didn't teach me how to handle money, I only started to learn from experts like Kiyosaki
