Education should be something you do every day of your life.
It is not about formal education. It is about constantly learning and constantly growing.
Although some people have chips on their shoulders about it, that is their problem. Their chips, their shoulders.

Yep im very agree with you Molly,
for me higher formal education is just a tool to change our
thinking process.
But the real precious education is what had happened in our daily life.
We never stop learningand trying to achieve happiness

High school and two apprenticeships.

If I'd gone to university this would have been to do history and politics which, unlike engineering or medicine, is very capably self-taught. It's more like social science, if you can "get" people then you can "get" politics(if you're interested in politics)and the greatest social science, politics and eocnomics lesson is a cross-class childhood mingling with people from all walks of life.

Many but very useful certificates and a Bachelor in English philology which is, honestly speaking, four wasted University years...
Self education is fantastic and should continue till we live, but to be a professional you need a solid training and and even more solid practice...
I wish I invested in studying medicine...probably my only regret in life...

My theory is mass conscription gives everyone the common touch and that's why politics worked up until the 1970s and then began to fail as generations which did not mingle outside of their own social class came into power.

National service, too. I do believe the liberal "egalitarians" threw away the necessary conservative ingredients for an egalitarian society. Tearing down the church and national service isolated people and made them less equal and communal. All this talk of diversity today is sheer nonsense, the most diverse generation in western history were the ones who fought the world wars.

I wonder if in the same way American civil war was the necessary ingredient for the American progressive era. The teamwork that comes from having to fight for your own survival in war is the conservative ingredient which belies all social progress. We the people develops out of those who die as cattle, and it dies amongst snowflakes.

Education is a set of different codes that help us to live and find our place in Society. Every child should always grow up in a safe and a supportive family environment which provides a much better quality of life than an institutional setting does. A wealth of knowledge and experience is great. Jmo.

The books I used back in high school, they were old as the hills at the time, not even close to being up to date. I'm wondering how much of what I learned is now obsolete and out of date. Sometimes when talking to someone in their early 20s, something will come up that we would have different facts for. As usual, my facts were out of date.

I'll never get around to doing it but I would like to have a copy of the new text books and get up to speed.

KremaP: Pat,
most people have degrees nowadays, it's a different question that majority of those degrees are useless.
In Bulgaria you can't impress anybody with a Bachelor's degree, it's kind of normal to have one...


Must be different over there, here a Bachelor of Arts would be seen differently to a Bachelor of Science. Many jobs now require a degree that previously did not, such as nursing. Obviously it also depends which social circles one mixes in, and how far from a university one lives.

A bachelor degree is mandatory for nurses here from at least 15-20 years...

Probably about the same for nurses here, There are EN's and RN's (enrolled/registered nurses). If they wipe bums or clean up mess, they dont have a degree.
