Formal education does not equal success. And I hope people understand this, they’re not mutually inclusive. Education only provide us some advantages and information that we may not get else where, and how you use that information determines the result. So many are even highly educated but not successful, while many are not educated but so frigging successful.
Of course, you can be successful without a formal education, there are many successful men and women out there that we all know didn’t have any college degree, yet, they’ve managed to scale through hurdles and challenges of life to build a successful life for themselves. Although, you cannot trivialize the advantages and opportunities a formal education will give to you. But even at that, the onus is upon you to know how to use it to your advantage and make the best of it.
