Steem4nigeria Accelerator Contest Week 61: Is formal education the only path to financial freedom?

Hi steemians

• Is it necessary to have a college degree to get a well-paying job? Please explain your experience, if any.

Having a college degree does not really guarantee a well paying job and those things were practiced in the olden days whereby people were depending more on farm and not prioritising education so those who school in those early years, they were treated special with good jobs. The honest truth remains that, there are people who has not gone to school but depend on a handwork that pays more that a college degree holder might not be earning. I am a graduate now from secondary school, one of my fried learnt tailoring since her junior class and now she live very well than some of our teachers.

• Is the title of the contest trying to condemn education?

Never at all, it is good to school and then have the knowledge but I want to assure you that most people no longer value education because after school they come home to stay, nothing is coming , no job, nothing at all and that is the more reason why youths are saying school is a complete scam because there is nothing in going to school, we all need and love this Education but it is not a guarantee for a good paying job. Also, we love to be educated incase of challenges from friends and so on.

• Is it dangerous to have the idea that you can only make money after finishing school?

It is very and extremely dangerous to have an idea that I can only make money after finishing school. While in the school one can start a business and other little businesses that would admonish an individual in the school where he is. If there is anything to do now even while in school please do not be deceived to say until I am done with school.

• How has Steemit proven that you don't have to finish school before you start making money?

I wish I could rate by percentage on how has Steemit proven that you don't have to finish school before you start making money. I really thank the Steemit for what they have really done for my life. I thank my sister @dave-hanny for always helpinge, teaching me and always putting e on the right track in this platform.
