@Richie131hun Exactly true.

@ravenknight4876 I got the same success, just 5-7 years later in my life than all of them due to wasting time in university... I knew what the way was all the way back in middle school. I'd go to work with my dad, or my mom, or one of my uncles and see that nothing they do I learn in school... Putting 2 and 2 together within a few months of being exposed to the real world. The difference is that my parents didn't let me go to private courses, because it meant not going to school, after they saw that going to the most elite school and university and being at the top of my class in school and almost top in uni I had no real world knowledge and skills, they started listening to me and let my younger brother do as I told him to do, instead of doing what they told him. Turned out I was correct from the age of 12 and the adults with master degrees in engineering were wrong.... ooops...

@ravenknight4876 I did, I just got the success 5-7 years later in my life. And I knew the way from middle school. How? I went to work with my dad, or mom or one of my uncles and I quickly realized that I didn't learn anything they were doing in school. Put 2 and 2 together. Edit: BTW I still had to go to private courses and self-educate through books on top of that to get a job...

@ravenknight4876 But Sadly my boomer parents didn't let me go to private courses and ditch school as much as possible to self-educate. But after being at the top of my class in the most elite math school and almost the top of my class at the most elite University of Technology, and they saw I had no real world skills and knowledge, they started listening to me and let me raise my little brother as I thought was right and I was right... Me all the way back at 12 years old knew the way, while the adults with engineering degrees were wrong... oops.

@ravenknight4876 BTW I still had to go to private courses and self-educate through books on top of that to get a job... And turns out high paying companies don't care for degrees at all... My friends still don't have a university degree, they still earn 3-6x the average salary and my job didn't ask me for a degree either, neither did my brother's.

@QWERTY-gp8fd The government did until the age of 18, along with my parents. There were ways to minimize attendance and use the time to actually learn a real life skill, but my parents had to agree and they didn't.

@aethylwulfeiii6502 The most important part is that they don't teach you real world skill and knowledge to become a highly skilled expert in a (sub)field.

@autumnislovely All these are useful, if they actually teach you properly and enough of each of them for you to practice them professionally on a medium level. I'd say that they taught us about 5-8% of the programming needed for a Junior Software developer in the 2020s. All the advanced math we learned in uni I have forgotten as I've never had to use it outside of it, basically anything after 9th grade(which here is like 11th-12th in the USA). They also taught us about 5% of what we needed to be a junior system administrator or network engineer too.

@autumnislovely If you work in medicine you have no choice, you legally need to have a degree, but medicine, law and architecture are the three exceptions. All other trade and engineering field degrees are worthless. STEM as a whole is just horrible to learn in university.

@haydenscott8009 I'm a software engineer and I have a pointless paper in CS and Telecom that you call a degree. I know from experience. And I know the job of my friends and university colleagues that solely relied on the education system... jobless... Well one works at a supermarket, another works at a warehouse. Same degree btw, they just can't pass an interview.

@Jumprr05 I think it's overwhelm rather than laziness in many cases. I for sure know that often times I can't even pick a source to learn from because there are so many books and documentations. And I don't know weather or not I'm picking the right source. It's paralysis because my mind/brain thinks I might waste my time by going through a 700 pages book or massive documentation.

@Jumprr05 Thanks, it's a realization I just came to recently. When I just start learning something, let's say from a book and the moment the book isn't amazing I get really strong resistance and aversion to continuing it, because my brain starts thinking that it's a waste of time and there are X-hundred more pages left. The correct answer to that I think is that we should do it anyway even if it wastes our time and/or isn't the most effective place to learn it and if we aren't satisfied with it, go and find another source and accept that time can't be perfectly well optimized and neither can learning. Also another problem I have is that I don't have a good algorithm for learning, I just read and write down what I read with my own words and then re-read that and then practice it, maybe it's not bad, but it is very slow.

@GameFuMaster I don't take loans that's what I've done and hopefully I never will have to.
