STOP USING ILLUSTRATIONS THAT ARE CONVENENIENT FOR YOU

What of Wole Soyinka, Fashola, Tony Elumelu, Sanusi, Fashola, ...are all these men not educated, intelligent and rich or famous?

Zuckerberg dropped out from Harvard, is it easy to enter in the first place? Though I think he finally went to complete it. His wife is also a graduate from Harvard, why didn't he marry one poor intelligent uneducated Asian girl?

Pls, stop it. Let's not start acting like every uneducated man is enlightened and rich, just because of a selected few that made it against all odds. Same applies to the educated. It all boils down to choice.
he dropped out from Harvard (a drop out right) yet married a graduate from Harvard for that matter. Why didn't she say no I can't marry you because you re a drop out?

Sometimes when I read some stuff out here on NL all I do is SMH. Education is much more that a mere certificate and am afraid many graduate are still not educated.

Because you're realising you have qualities you actually look out for, something different from certificate, but superficial in it's own way. Something that makes the lady more compatible with you.
Something you might say and I will likely tell you, it's not important, what matters is 'compatibility'. Then we wonder what is compatibility?

You don't have to answer me here, you know the answer.
Good morning grin
I get your point but I doubt you understand mine. All I'm saying is— you can't just marry because sb is having degree or not. Clear now?

and the funny thing is that what we kill ourselves to learn in classes only few of the pages are really applied in engineering ... most engineers have to undergo some training (most of the trainers are non graduates) to be well vexed with what they're to face in the industry
I am telling you. When you go out, that is when you know that dydx is not applicable in the real life.

Can you be successful without a degree? Yes. However, for most people, a degree is a safety net, most jobs sha require one to even be eligible to apply, not having one is not the end of the world as there are tons of people with successful careers without one, however it's definitely the safer option. I can understand why someone wouldn't want to marry a non degree holder

Also, all you people quoting Millionaire/Billionaire 'dropouts', they are the exception and not the rule

Read the opening post, ONLY SSCE certificate. Why didn't he marry another drop out? Since you wanna play semantics.

He got into Harvard, he spent some time before dropping out. I'm sure he picked up something during his stay there.

She accepted him because it's her fvcking choice! Are we all suppose to marry drop outs?damn!!! What's wrong with people!

Many graduates are uneducated and many graduates are educated! Gates colleague at school who didn't drop out, made it into Microsoft. Why don't you guys ever use him as an example? Because he didn't drop out? Smh!!

In this age, i cant do it. there are uncountable stories of people who struggled 2 train themselves through school. he didnt do it, not because of money BUT because he thought it was not necessary. Any man with that mentality is not fit to be my husband and life partner. when we get married, i would have submit to him, i cant marry such a man only for him 2 tell me my children does not need to do BSc or MSc is a waste of money.
wrong mindset,The most influcial people of the world are not degree holders FACT!

No, fucking way, I can't do that. You don't expect me to go through the stress of getting a degree, then settling with someone lesser than I am. The truth is, there's always going to be jealousy and so many annoying shit like that. I want someone that reasons better than me, that I can have a reasonable conversation with. Most educated people can't even have a reasonable conversation not to talk of a school dropout.
There are Bunch of people with no degree that are 100 times more than you can ever be, I can give you 10 names off my head if you ask

which bsc does indimi, ahmed musa or emenike have . Having a bsc doesnt make u a beta or worse person. In the uk (who colonised us) secondary school education is seen as enuf. A female doc can marry a gardner or cleaner. And no fuss wud be made of it. We really have a long way to go in nigeria. Some have bsc they cant speak or write good english. All those expats in julius berger, cappa and d alberto, and those oil workers in PH . most dont have bsc just vocational courses. Smh for nigeria o

Hello, Ladies. Interesting views so far, I must tell you. I don't intend meddling with all the ladies throwing around arguments. Please take note of the following:

1. Possession of a degree does not, in anyway, make you think better than someone without it.

2. Marrying a man that possesses a degree does not guarantee you a happy marriage.

3. Bagging a degree is not the true definition of education. Simply put, you're not better educated than one without it.

4. It's not every man without a degree that is jealous of a career-loving wife.

5. 99% of the people that have interracted with me in all spheres of life in the last 12 years (including you) did not know that I never had a degree (till today) .

6. I do not have a degree. What I possess is NCE. With it, I taugh in schools, worked in the financial services sector, worked in the construction and building sector, etc. before resigning into self-employment in October, 2015. Currently in Church, I oversee hundreds of very learned personalities, yet if they are told today that I'm not a graduate, they will say, "it's a lie." Today, I run my own successful school and farm. My in-laws to be do not even bother asking if I'm a graduate or not. Infact, they do not even know and even if they're told, they'll never believe it. My father-in-law to be is a serving Navy Capt. in the Nigerian Navy. I'm marrying their daughter by God's grace next year. I have never stepped outside the shores of Nigeria. Even though I don't possess a university degree, my wife to be does not even bother. It's very good to be a graduate, but that's not all to life.

7. I'm just 32.

Ladies, what do you have to say about me?


I'm thrilled. Then, what's your secret? How do you managed to lead such an immaculate life without going to school?! .

You are not making any sense, I'm sapiosexual and I can only marry intelligent person.

For your info, I don't do cram and pour, you can't do that in my course, you will fail woefully.

Sapiosexuals themselves are highly intelligent people, hence the reason they desire intelligence in the opposite gender above other things. And if you are witty as you claim, you should know that one's level of intelligence is not measured by their certificate. I stopped schooling at SS3 and failed my WAEC woefully but I am not a dumbo.

the only education I consider good enough for an individual is the basic education and high school education which gives you a general view of life

tertiary education is meant to sharpen your skill in any career choice you wish to get involved in but it in no way makes you intelligent ... Yes I am in a tertiary institution cos I chose to be an Engineer and I can only be a professional in that field when I an tutored by other professionals in the said field ... Tertiary education doesn't make you any better than a well informed non graduate out there who is well informed and vexed in what he does
the only difference is that you have a degree and he doesn't
and he can get vexed, go out there and earn a degree in 4 years time.

I perfectly understand your point sir
I am talking about the exposure, regardless of paper.
The little time they gonna spend before the drop out is gonna impart alot to them
If i work with juilus berger for four months & mr B works for baba latti bricklayer for four months, i dont think we both will have same level of exposure...Hope my analogy paints a clearer picture of my point....

You are absolutely correct. Your analogy is a clear indication of what we are talking about.

So you saying some one that learnt programming abroad and never passed through any Uni isn't good enough for You? You display high ignorance in a public place , keep calm please .

Nigeria is too backward with comments like yours, Alot of your graduate friends earn 80k per month , millions are roaming the streets , if you can make nice furniture and good at it ,if you can learn how to program cars and good at it , if you can learn alot of other things and become good at it , that's amazing !

Do you have an idea what it takes to become a pilot ?

You read all my post from first page and that's all your brain could come up with it? I clearly stated it, that I prefer professionals, not just the degree, it's my choice. Not because I feel people without degree are not intelligent.

Now, did you read the opening post before hopping on my comment. The OP said ONLY SSCE certificate, then some people start mentioning Zuckerberg and Gates, does that correlate?

You missed all that and you are on my post to tell me what your B.Sc friends earn? Did I at any point tell you my problem is their earning capacity? All my responses as regards financial worth were in response to people and not my stand.
