"Dismissing education as ‘nothing’ is shortsighted. Wealth isn’t solely built in classrooms, but knowledge—formal or informal—is the foundation of sustainable success. Many without degrees thrive, but many with them innovate, lead, and build industries. The real distinction? Strategic thinking, adaptability, and execution. It’s not education vs. hustle—it’s knowing how to leverage both."

@SirBrayneZA commented:

"That’s a condescending perspective. The mistake you should avoid is assuming that accolades alone equate to success. Success isn’t built on education alone; it requires a combination of factors. At the same time, never underestimate the value of education ~ there are skills and knowledge you gain through education that are difficult to acquire otherwise. The individuals you’re referring to in your community may lack the innovative ideas necessary to make their qualifications work for them. Holding degrees while passively waiting for opportunities reflects a limited and counterproductive mindset."
