SOME OF THE SMARTEST PEOPLE I KNOW ARE FLAT BROKE. AND I HAVE SEEN SOME EXTREMELY DUMB PEOPLE THAT ARE RICH. HOW CAN THIS BE? IF WE ARE IN A SOCIETY WHERE THEY SAY KNOWLEDGE IS POWER...THAN WHY ARE THERE SO MANY BROKE COLLEGE GRADUATES? IS IT BETTER TO HAVE BOOK SENSE, OR TO BE STREET SAVVY? RIGHT NOW WHICH WOULD YOU PICK? IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A GOOD JOB YOU WILL NEED A DEGREE. BUT YOU DON'T NEED A DEGREE TO START YOUR OWN BUSINESS. JUST A VISION AND SOME HUSTLE WILL GET YOU FAR. SO WHY DO WE ENCOURAGE OUR KIDS TO GO TO COLLEGE, WHEN MOST RICH PEOPLE DIDN'T GET RICH DOING WHAT THEY WENT TO SCHOOL FOR? WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THOSE THAT WENT TO SCHOOL (FOR FREE) ON SOME FORM OF SCHOLARSHIP, SEEMS LIKE GETTING AN EDUCATION THESE DAYS IN MOST FIELDS ONLY STARTS YOU OFF IN DEBT. AND RARELY MAKES YOU WEALTHY. SO WHICH IS IT, THE PIECE OF PAPER YOU HOLD, OR YOUR GRIND AND PERSONALITY THAT WILL GET YOU ON TOP?
