Topic: If being a graduate is the key to being wealthy, why are there poor graduates? - page 4. (Read 2115 times)

     Education is important because, honestly, I have not seen anyone who has been successful in life who did not learn anything in school, even if we say that others drop out of school. Today, most of those who have graduated—actually,  not all of them—apply what they learned in school. That's why the rest of them, most of them, still remain poor.

Because there are others who have graduated that combine what they have learned with the strategy that they think of doing for the business that they want to get and do in reality.

First off, I must say that Education is very good and i don't dispute the fact that it's very vital and necessary for human development, it can put you in a position to be successful no doubt but being a graduate is not a 100% guarantee for one to be very wealthy, one can be very sound academically but lack some basic skills of acquiring wealth. Also one can still have some good knowledge of certain skills but if there's no zeal or self confidence in earning a living through it then your education on those skills can be said to be a waste since you ain't making effort to earn from it.

 Also I've heard several people complain about having good grades, being 1st class graduates but find it difficult to secure good paying jobs, imagine someone struggling to achieve good grades in the university but find it difficult to earn a living and at the end settle for minor jobs while there are many dropouts with good skillsets as well as being creative and think outside the box, and are bosses of big organisations and companies.

 Well it's not basically about being educated or graduating with the best grades that makes you wealthy, it's about determination, being consistent and also persistent cause success and wealth are not achieved in one day or immediately after graduating. In as much as you have good grades, you must still improve your skills, not only job skills, marketing or management skills but your critical thinking and problem solving skills.

Having a graduate or higher education does not necessarily guarantee that someone will be richer,, because to achieve wealth nowadays you must have large capital and be supported by adequate skills. Education only provides a way for someone to seek knowledge but does not provide the same opportunity to gain wealth. Marketing management and skills in building relationships are quite important in developing a business because we have to find as many consumers as possible to buy the products we sell.

The long process of developing a business is not easy because people have to rise and fall to achieve success. If someone is inconsistent and not ready to take risks, it will be much more difficult to achieve success in the business world. That's why achieving wealth is not as easy as imagined because there are many processes that people have to go through and of course it is not easy to achieve it.

Well it's not basically about being educated or graduating with the best grades that makes you wealthy, it's about determination, being consistent and also persistent cause success and wealth are not achieved in one day or immediately after graduating.

No mate there are still a lot of people cares about your education since somehow there are people will look at this achievement  before they respect you. Also there's a lot of discrimination outside especially if you are not a college graduate. You can't get a high paying job and your position most likely hard to rise.  Maybe there are some undergraduate became so rich due to a lot of hustle they do in life. But people should remember that we have different faith and what became effective to other may not work to other people. That's why we or they need to graduate so they have a lot of choices in life.

well, wealth is not based on graduation. In fact, many people are still poor or do not find work after they graduate. What makes people rich is the ability they have and the hard work they put in. No matter how good a person's abilities are, and even how good his graduation is, if he is lazy, he will experience setbacks.
After all, graduation is only the foundation for developing the skills we have, and it is proof that we may be experts in a field. However, what makes everything run smoothly is how capable you are and how hard you work to achieve your goals.

literally yes, there's a lot of discrimination especially here in our country, no matter how rich you are, if you don't have a diploma to present to other people, they will still say something about you. sometimes even if you have finished your studies but you don't have a good job, they will still judge you. When it comes to the corporate world, you cannot justify your experiences and your knowledge because one of the main requirements they are looking for is a diploma.

No one cares about your education if you can't market yourself. I had a mate in university who had all the A+ grades but she still works at McDonalds because she wasn't from a rich family and was a shy girl.
On another hand, there are many people who have never studied at school and university but earn six figures. Khaby Lame is a good example, he never studied at University but used the right moment at the right time and is earning much more than people who work 12 hour shifts a week and do the hardest jobs.

Education is important, and it is just one of the achievements that people also need. Because this is one of the sources of knowledge that we can use in the future. Actually, the topic of education is very broad, because this is where our knowledge and strategy on how to survive in life begin. The more we know, the better. It is difficult that we only know so little.

Now why are there still more poor people, even though most of them have completed their education or have a diploma? That's because they don't use the things they learned in their studies. Even though Mark Zuckerburg dropped out, they were still successful in life, and what they learned while he was studying cannot be unrelated to the success he has now in his life. He became even smarter because he saw that his business would grow even more if he hired smart graduates for his company. Because he knows what is brought about by a person with knowledge or intelligence who has graduated.

The only way to break out of poverty cycle is to provide a service or sell a product. School does not teach one how to become rich. Scholars aren’t particularly concerned about making money for themselves, they live for the passion of their chosen profession. Most times, students are so busy with their studies that they forget to socialize and build relationship with other students on campus. I think building a strong network in university helps a lot when you’re in the labour market and you need jobs or contracts.

Agreed with @Princess Leah, we have to ubderstand that Education or graduation does not make your wealth. Only certificate can't give you success, there must be full dedication to achieve something in life. Without this dedication no one can makes money in their life. We must be focused in our life so that we can do what we actually want to do in our life. If graduates people are not focused dedicated in their work-life then they must be poor. 3 thngs we need to make something happen speciall in our life skill, hardwork, and luck.

To be a graduate is not a guarantee for you to become a rich person, the only thing is that a a graduate have a be possible ways to solve a problem to also plan very well in order to elevate itself from getting poverty or being poor for life why someone who is not a graduate will not have the kind of idea someone who is a graduate how for a order to Plan a better way for its life, one thing I want us to understand is that this life is all about planning and also a God wish to us to be rich is based on your strategies, understand the dimensions of life and the application of life before you become a successful person

Education gives you an advantage and makes you more likely to be rich and wealthy. There are poor graduates for many reasons like,
the system failing them, that is after school there was no good job available for them, some of them were not serious in school and because of their poor grades made themselves not eligible for good jobs. There are some poor graduates because education does not remove automatically financial indiscipline. Some graduates are poor because they have failed to keep money to build wealth when they had it.

Not all graduates have the gained skills during their schools, so they are sometimes struggling how to market themselves, and to those graduates people still it depend not everyone has the same opportunity that's why the school are preparing us with the reality, once you graduate, and face the outside world you can now see how struggle it is this is how people getting strive to survive with their daily basis. If you have the knowledge, skills, and network its easy to you to make a good communication to market and make your own strategy to get out with the social status you have and reach to become a successful once.

Educational certificate only increases our social and status Education certificate can never give us any good job.  Because you must have good skills to do good work  Without skill you can't do anything well. Because where you will work, they will take work from you in exchange of money, they will not pay you after seeing your certificate. So to do something good in life you must have skills.  Without skill you can do nothing.
