So you want... to get a degree Why? Let me tell you what society will tell you:
Increases your chances of getting a job, Provides you an opportunity to be successful, Be a lot less stressful,
Education is the key.

Now let me tell you something your parents will tell you: Make me proud,
Increases your chances of getting a job, Provides you an opportunity to be successful, Your life will be a lot less stressful, Education is the key.

Now let's look at the statistics,
Steve Jobs - net worth seven billion R.I.P,
Richard Branson - net worth four point two billion,
Oprah Winfrey - two point seven billion,
Mark Zuckerberg, Henry Ford, Steven Spielberg, Bill Gates Now here comes the Coup de grâce,
Looking at these individuals, what's your conclusion? Neither of them in being successful,
Ever graduated from a higher learning institution.

Now some of you may be like, Money is only the medium by which we measure worldly success, And some of you even have the nerve to say "I don't do it for the money."
So what you studying for? To work for a charity? Need more clarity?

Let's look at the statistics:
Jesus,
Muhammed,
Socrates,
Malcolm X, Mother Teresa, Spielberg,
Shakespeare,
Beethoven, Jesse Owens, Muhammad Ali,
Sean Carter, Michael Jeffrey Jordan, Michael Joseph Jackson.
Were either of these people unsuccessful... or... uneducated?

All I'm saying is that,
If there was a family tree hard work and education would be related, But school would probably be a distant cousin,
Because if education is the key, School is the lock,
Because it rarely ever develops your mind to the point where it can perceive red as green and continue to go when someone else said stop.
Because as long as you follow the rules and pass exams your cool, But are you aware that examiners have a checklist, And if your answer is something outside the box then the automatic response is a cross,
And then they claim that

    In ‘Of Mice and Men’ and ‘An Inspector Calls’ both authors indirectly show their beliefs and opinions towards women and the way they are treated by society. In the time both texts were set- 1912 and the 1930’s- women were generally seen as a lesser class than men and due to their sexuality, they were not treated fairly. Steinbeck and Priestley show this at many points in their texts.…

    Although after graduating from college a job is not guaranteed, the unemployment rate among college graduates ages 25 to 34 is just 2 percent, while the unemployment rate for people that don’t have a high school diploma is 13.8 percent and 8.4 percent with no college degree; therefore, more education pays in terms of getting a job (Leonhardt). Jaison Abel and Richard Deitz, co-authors of the Fed report argue that a benefit to attending college is that “College degrees are stepping stones for postgraduate degrees, which offer bigger payoffs” while also adding that college teaches “aptitudes, skills and other characteristics that make them different from those who do not go on to college” (Peralta). In other words saying that college allows one to branch out as its education provides a foundation of skills and abilities that students bring into the workforce upon graduation and makes them stand out to employers. According to a study that examined full- and part-time employment for 21- to 24-year-olds before and after the 2007-2009 recession released by Pew Charitable Trusts, after the recession “the downward trend in employment stabilized more quickly for the four-year college graduates”, showing that those that went to college were able to recover faster (Adams). In terms of lifetime earnings, according to a series of more recent studies, college graduates earn more than high school graduates. In another study done in Pew Research Centre, they found that college graduates aged 25 to 32 working full time earn about $17,500 more annually than those who only have a high school diploma ("Higher Education: Is College"). In College Board research, median earnings during 40-year full-time working…
