I'd agree with that more than not.. The generalisation is a tad strong IMO..

obsession with "education" and the associated credentialism which misleads young people into wasting the best part of their lives on "getting degrees". I learned this by the age of 16! Dropped out and never looked back.

i would not consider 60 months partying on merit while nailing down degrees which would normally take much longer a waste of time as to effort ... i majored in skipping classes and studying the last awful moment while sleeping under the sunshine next to the big picture window on olin library, by osmosis, while dreaming about the steamers at antler's inn that were shipped in every thursday from the big apple the crashed german scirroco was a waste, but then the rx 7 rotary was a better machine - by the neat and tidy japanese i cannot, to this day, think of a better way to waste 60 months and may all my friends and family will be able to do as i did, god willing or not

>>Nearly all official "education" is a waste of money time and effort.<< What a load of bunk! A college education is a terrific opportunity. I loved it. Gold: 921
