How important is education to you?

[Msputiton]

[Charlesbrandonf]

many don’t want to invest their time in trying things in life. They don’t see opportunities out in the real world, they train their mind not to fail, the second they’re determined not to fail, they invest their time in only being success, continues success means continuously working for someone/somewhere buying things that are out of our budget and then paying credit card debts and wanting to get good experience and get good salary.

Education is good but it’s not life. Every stage of life is an education. World itself is blue print of every page. And Everyone who attended reputable colleges and have PHD’s/masters aren’t running the world or running the highest income businesses, But they’re working for someone who dropped out of schools.

Being educated is important.. the way you get education varies significantly! Going to school for a “traditional” education, means that you pay a shit ton of money with limited resources for actual experience and job placement. Unless you are in a specific field like nursing, doctor, lawyer etc… anything else is not worth traditional education. Therefore, being educated super important, but education (where you get it) is only important when it is cost affective and all the resources to get a job.

I loved getting a degree because it made me feel like my opportunities in life were endless. I have chances to earn money and work now, but the chances to learn and grow are not the same.

[weysally]

depends on what you mean by education, education to me is, learning how to work things out, how to use one's common sense, not swopping up to pass an exam

[andreasderjuengere]

To me, ''education'' consists of three major details:

#1 - Knowledge/skills, and

#2 -agreeable social interaction towards those who qualify as equals, and

#3 -tolerance towards those who DON'T qualify as equals.

In my own world order it's a priority to make use of the last ca. 30000 years of human efforts to 'improve'.

Being "educated", as defined by "having a body of knowledge on a given subject", isn't as important as being intelligent, and certainly not as important as being wise. That said, the more knowledge a person has, the more chance they can do something useful with it. To me, it's important to have a good knowledge base in a variety of areas, but knowing how to "think" is much more important.

[Havthrills]

The meaning of that is different for me now. With "no kid left behind" ruining it. Educated is really good. I do like when someone is educated. Education, someone can completely fail in school, go through cause no kid left behind, have an education but is not educated.

Or I'm thinking too deeply.

[Jaximus-Lion]

Basic! Very important. Reading, writing with a nice handstyle, knowledge is key.

Special or further education is more important and is a plus for a career. But not as important as basic education, in my opinion

[exitseven]

It is very important. I have three degrees and taught computer science. I pushed my kids to go to college nd they all graduated and all have good job. It is not the only path for people but I am glad I stuck it out.

[20yearsolder]

It's not, some of the smartest people I've ever met never finish high school. Education is not for everybody, I'm one of those people. I made it through high school and that was plenty for me

[mstbooblover]

Education is the basics of civilization, first of all the way to learn and behave decently with fellow citizens, ways to integrate into a society. Even animals educate their young... ;0)

[NathanDavis]

very much so... that I've been a tutor for many years, all I can help with for people to learn better and not just learn what they're told

[TheMajesticKing777]

Depends, because education and intelligence are two different things and education on paper isn't something I really care about

[TallAnon]

Education gives you a quick start to life, but don't count on the credentials themselves doing much, learning and learning how to learn are the important parts. Whether you get that from youtube or a teacher is irrelevant.

[humanearth]

Its not important to me

You don't need school any more. You can learn everything you want, just from watching YouTube

[SnowedIn]

Very important but the practical application of that knowledge is at least as if not more important.

[_Just_A_girl_]

After h. s it's whatever. No one tells the truth one can have success and be debt free at that avoiding uni

[Fireguy17]

Pretty important, you need to be able to have a semi intelligent conversation.

[FilmGuy93]

Extremely! Education makes a huge difference in everyone’s life.

[JenniferBiArizona]

At least your diploma. I didn’t go to college, but am making really good money and can be looking at buying a house next year

[Shamalien]

Like school? Not important at all. A minus, if anything. Self education? Infinitely important

[collie22]

my education is my path to do what i want. so its very important to me

[jasco]

Very important depending on what is being taught.

[Hanrej]

Less important than experiance but important none the less.

[Smartman5]

very important. I attach great importance to education. education is a must

[legalboxers]

education can be obtained many ways. But it has to be something worthy

[Chance_CMB]

Just little important seems money and fame is the big deal now

[AddylynnNightingale]

As important as it to find a job.

[Sixgunsound]

It’s my passion and my livelihood.

[AsaKyo]

Pretty important
