hi @ehmkannde,

it's hard not to agree that education is key to success, but then we're being tought in schools by teachers that usually didn't achieve much and they are not successful people at all.

So at the end of the day it really matters who is providing you with knowledge and how do they do that.

Also it's worth to ask yourself a question: what is success for you? If you're crazy about making money then basic education should be enough. Your friend is carpenter then he may be even more financially successful than someone with master degree in marketing or science etc.

At least in Poland demand for qualified phisical workers is huge and I realized many times before, that if I would skip studying and become construction worker then by now I would be way richer than I am.

Anyway interesting post, easy read. Upvoted big time :)

Yours
Piotr
