How Education Can Help You Get a Job or Start a Business

If you have a university degree, it will be a little easier for you to get a job because education is the basic requirement to get a job. However, education does not guarantee a job, especially when there are no jobs available in your place or the education degree you acquired has no commercial value. If you want to ensure that you get a job after completing your education you need to study subjects that have the potential to make a lot of money. Science and technology can make you more money than arts and literature. You will also need vocational skills. In some cases, vocational skills can supplement your lack of a degree. For example, you can work in a design company even when you are not a graduate, all you need is designing skills. While university certificates are essential, it is also very important what you can actually do.

Do You Really Need Education to Make Money

In order to answer the question “do you really need education to make money” you first need answers on two other questions.

How can you make money?

What is the purpose of education?

In order to make money you need skills and knowledge. I will give you one simple example, if you did not have writing skills and if you did not have knowledge on various topics, would you be able to make money on this platform?

How do you build skills and knowledge? Apart from education, is there any way to build skills and knowledge? It does not matter how you get education, but what matters is you need to be educated.

So, now back to the original question. How can money making be better than education when you need education to make money?

If you want to make money, first consider building your knowledge and skills through education. Without education, your life is doomed.

You don’t need education to pick trash and make money from trash, but I guess that’s now what money making means, right?  

Here are some examples how education can help you make money:

Spend 12 years in school and another 4 years in college and graduate by the age of 22, join the job market and climb the corporate ladder.

Spend 12 years for basic education, and another 1-2 years for vocational training and then start working. Save money, invest money, and compound your saving and investing to become rich.

When you are still at school, saving your pocket money and start investing in the stock market. By the time you are 25, you will be rich.

Invest in yourself and grow rich. For instance, why spend $50 on a game when you can use that money to learn game development and make money as a developer.You can learn this only when you have education.

You Need Education to Start a Business

Even though getting a formal education in school or college does not guarantee you a success, getting a formal education I'm school or college increases your chances of becoming successful in life. That's because when you get a formal education you become knowledge, when you have knowledge you can apply in various jobs and when you have jobs you will be earning money regularly. When money is coming regularly, you are likely to be financially fit. When you generate income you can also save and invest to build wealth. The best way to start a business is by building knowledge and skills through education and learning, and then working for other companies to build skills, and then finally use your knowledge, skills, and experience to start your own business. Well, a lot of people agree that you need to have knowledge and skils but they avoid working for others. Well, there are two benefits for working for others, one you make money and you can use that money to build your own business, and two, you can gain experience. When you have your own money and experience, it is easy to start a business

Education is Expensive

Education is becoming very expensive day by day. If you want to do an MBA, you need to spend at least $60K in tuition fees. That's a lot of money. Education is a must for generating good income. The higher the degree you have the better job you will get. However, higher education costs a lot of money. Therefore, student loans come as a boon to those who want to acquire a higher degree in a hope of building knowledge and skills to get a high-paying job. Student loans are normally low-interest loans. Some student loans require to start repaying immediately, though

Why Unemployment is High

Why do you think there is unemployment, why there is imbalance in the job market? Well, the reason is simple, there are more job seekers than job providers. You see, every year, millions of people graduate (globally), but new jobs are not created in the same numbers. There is a mismatch between those who complete education and the jobs being created. Despite the fact that many people build knowledge and skills so that they can find appropriate job but only few companies are created every year and only feed companies are able to afford new workforce. There is a scarcity of jobs in the market. If you are someone with a good education background, many years of experience, you can easily get a good job. However, if you lack qualification and experience it is not possible to get a good job immediately. A lot of people switch jobs and they are usually hired immediately because they have a lot of experience. Without experience, your employer is not going to trust you. If you are highly skilled, you can get hired immediately, if you do not have good skills, getting hired is very difficult

How to Address Unemployment and Poverty

Unemployment is a huge problem everywhere, from the United States where it is 3.7 percent to China where it is 5.2 percent, it is causing problem in developed as well as developing countries. Unemployment usually leads to poverty. When there is poverty in the society, it will create extreme poverty as poverty leads to a lack of education, training, and skills. Without the necessary knowledge and skills for work, generating income becomes challenging. Countries facing poverty often exhibit low literacy rates, and other factors such as armed conflict and terrorism contribute significantly to the cycle of poverty. So, how do you think we can address this issue?

The first step of course starts with getting a degree. In our country, getting a degree is not enough to get a job. Once you have a degree you are required to apply for a licence. You need to sit in competitive exams to get a licence. Getting a licence does not guarantee you a job but it will make you eligible for jobs, whether in a private sector or in the government sector. In our country, government jobs are considered better than private jobs. That because government offers better perks and pay scale. But getting a government job is very competitive as you will have to pass competitive exam.

Has Education Become Useless

Education serves two main purposes: first, it helps you build knowledge and skills, and second, it provides you with resources that can be used to earn money. Well, education equips with knowledge and skills and helps you to get a job but despite having degree, education does not guarantee you a job. Just because you have a degree does not mean you can also get a job. Despite having a degree if someone remains unemployed, is it the fault of education? If an educated person is unable to get a job, whose fault is it the entire education system?  Do you think education has failed to deliver its purpose?

How to Pursue Education On Low Budget

Education is becoming very expensive. If you want to spend 4 years in college learning Business, you will end up spending hundreds of thousands. Since education is expensive, those who are pursuing higher degrees are using education loan to pay in their colleges and universities. If you want to become educated, you'll likely have debt. If you have education loan, cut other expenses. Also, working on a part-time job to earn extra cash that you can use to pay off your debt. Instead of enrolling in a private college and university, join community colleges and universities, or join online universities or open universities to cut education cost.
