Yes. But if other people think that education is not problematic, I'd like to know why they think it's important. I grew up in a household where education was stressed before everything else--so, if someone became a millionaire, but they didn't have a bachelor's degree, they hadn't "made it." As I got out into the world, I noticed people with master's degrees who were twenty dollars away from starving, or very bored, bitter people in white collar jobs that needed a degree. I couldn't understand how someone would spend tens of thousands of dollars on college--it looked to me like they were losing money, and with no possibility of bankruptcy protection!
What's the correct role for education in a person's life? Okay, I know it varies from person to person, but perhaps there's some sort of pattern that can be drawn.
