The Value of Education

Education is said to be the key to unlock poverty, which had believed for most of my life. After seeking a higher level of education I start to reevaluate that statement. I was also told that education unlocks endless possibilities and presents many opportunities. Again life had led me to rethink these statements. Presently there are many persons who were not qualified to get a job, they made the sacrifice and attend university, took student loans which amass to huge expenses to repay, with the hope of landing the ideal job in their field of study, but sad to say the reality is not as they saying. The story changes after graduation, you are too qualified, we can’t pay you, or you need to have experience for the position.

This practice is so frustrating, at one point you were not qualified, after school you are too qualified, what then? what to do? fully qualified without a job, unable to repay the student loan, which may lead to you been blocked from travelling or doing any business because of delinquency. Education place you in a worst place than you were before school. So sad, it is just the reality of what can happen. All this leave me to wonder if education has a real value. What is the true value of education?
