As the cyclical and seemingly never ending debate about education rages on, the topic - somewhat ironically, often poses more questions than it provides answers.
But what is the value of mainstream schooling? Why is it that some of the most high profile and successful figures within the Western world openly admit to never having completed any form of higher learning?
Paying homage to Jefferson Bethke's "Why I Hate Religion but Love Jesus", a piece that received 22 million views in the space of a week, I address a number of these issues in my offering "Why I Hate School, but Love Education".
With scores of school leavers wanting to further their education with no guarantee of their dream job at the end of it, we should ask ourselves whether qualifications still hold the same value now as they did in previous years?
Does success in the school system correlate to success in life? Or is the school system simply geared towards fact retention and regurgitation?
What is true education?

I have a history teacher who goes against the curriculum and hasn't assigned any book work all year. But every day, he says "What would you like to debate about?" We all have our arguments and rebuts, and guess what? I have learned more about people, how your background can influence people, controversial topics, and certain lifestyles in that one class in one year than in any of my classes all together my entire life. I enjoy going to that class. No one falls asleep because we are so excited to get our opinions out or listen to other's opinions. The teacher wants us to think what we want, not think about facts that we don't want to learn or will forget after the period. This history class has actually helped my social skills dramatically. A's do not mean that you are smart. F's do not mean that you are stupid. I currently has horrible grades. Not because I don't understand the material, but because I don't do the work. I don't want to become a biologist. So why should I waste my time doing a 3 page packet on the splitting of DNA?

Hugo Yolo While you may never have a practical need for knowing every single detail of an author's life and emotional state when they wrote a particular piece, you will need to know how to read, write, and communicate effectively. You'd be amazed at how many university level students don't know how to write a simple email to a professor; I get at least 1 email per class each semester reminding me how to communicate with said professor. It's all about how the skills you are supposed to be learning translate into being an adult. Is the system perfect? Ha! No way. Will it ever be perfect? Nope. But it can be worked on and improved upon; the system can't make you learn. What you learn or don't learn is entirely up to you.

Chris Dueck Sometimes people who do not spell well have been failed by our current and historic educational systems... they may be dyslexic or have other learning disabilities that have gone and continue to go unremediated on a daily basis in this country... I am for education, but really, I have serious doubts about the quality of education in this country today and for at least the last 3 decades since I have been out of school... It appears that students no longer are graded on what they know, but instead are graded on just putting something down on paper, even if it is not a quality answer, and being given credit for handing in a piece of paper ... even if it is totally inaccurate, wrong or incomplete... Yet this passes for an acceptable education today... I now know why so many people have lost faith in our current education system... More than 7 out of 10 students graduating from high school are unable to read, write or do math proficiently, and these are the ones GRADUATING and being handed a high school diploma (it doesn't even count the ones that dropped out of high school!) .... so I would have to agree with this video in many respects... as a traditional education obviously doesn't seem to matter or ensure that it will give students the solid foundational skills that they will need to be successful in life outside of this parallel universe called K-12 education in the USA...

Education is the goal, schooling is just seen as a means to the end goal, hence the reason a graduate is offered employment by companies, that piece of paper 📄 simply shows that you should have done at least the bare minimum requirements of learning that trade or skill, in truth there could be the most skilled person on the planet that doesn’t have a piece of paper that says they passed tests or took required classes, But they would still know more than any living being on the planet about that skill, That is,if they were truly the best on the planet…

+jet Remastered You can change that actually. You can go to school just because you want to discover the world. now discovering the world using basic textbooks is not the ideal way. You need to check out vlogs city pictures using the internet. read about life in other places. read about how thing work the sun the soap. why the sky is blue and why are you here? and learning the basics in school 100% helps you. the basics is a relative word . so you should consider that. don't go to school to pass exams. Before you learn math ask yourself why i am learning math ? if you didn't find the answer stop. and ask someone who is good at math more like professor or something why would you need to learn math . if he didn't give you a good answer. don't learn and pass the exams but if you ask me . math builds critcal thinking and its widely used. it's used in all the things in your phone , your computer everything . it's the things that protects your passwords and privacy it's everything in the technology world. so you need to know a little about the basics. to get an overview of how it works. and the make things work. but studying math by itself without knowing why. is 1000% useless for you (I think).

The Moral Crusader Prov 17:16 (GNT) says it does a fool no good to spend money on education - this rule is true for fools because fools have no common sense. Above that, if I quote from KJV or NIV or NASB or other versions, it speaks of 'wisdom' and not 'education'. Wisdom cannot be bought - that is what this verse means. It does not mean to not go to school. School imparts knowledge. People get wiser everyday, by making rights decisions or learning from the ones wrongly made.

Middle school tells me I'm smart. There are posters that tell you to keep trying. The teachers tell you that you are smart you just haven't put in enough effort... But the system tells me something different. It tells me that I am a percent, just a number. It tells me that if I don't get a high enough score then I'm dumb. It tells me that if I fail I'm worthless and will never amount to anything. It's funny how the system tells you one thing but does a different thing. How it makes you feel like a failure. Telling you that you have to try harder. Telling you that even if you are going through depression, anxiety, ADD, ect. You still cannot fail. The systems treats us like worthless robots trying to motivate us to do something and not fail for the "big picture". Because they want the state scores to go up. They don't care about whether we are prepared for the future. Prepared to do taxes and get jobs. It's for their own selfish gain. Sorry :P just a thought. I don't know I haven't really looked at the flaws to this way of thinking so there may be some things that don't make sense :3

I have listened to this a few times now, but the message only makes to a certain degree sense. "So you want to get a degree? Why?" Well, in the modern world of the 21st century, if you want to work as an engineer, scientist, doctor, be a professor etc, you need a degree. There is no way around it. Airbus is not going to hire you as an engineer if all you got is a high school diploma. Those "statistics" this guy mentioned, are not statistics, but facts. There are a few people who have a clear business plan and do become successful with it, without having got a degree. But MANY, fail in life because they chose not to get a degree. However, I don't disagree with everything he said. "Education is about inspiring ones mind, not just filling their heads" This is true. Most school systems fail on this one big time. You will not be taught to understand the stuff you are learning. It is only to be filled in your head and you know it is like that, but you don't know why. A simple example: What is 3²? Now, we all know its 9 because we understand the concept. We know that 3²=3x3. Now, lets pretend you are tutoring someone who is learning this right now. If you tell him 3²=9, he will know from now on its 9. But if he gets confronted with 3³ or 4², he will not have a clue how to solve it, because he was never taught to understand this. And this problem, applies with everything. Many probably know that the derivative of f(x)=4x³+3x²-8 f'(x)=12x²+6x is, but how many can actually tell me why this is? "Memorizing equations facts and dates" Memorizing is the least helpful thing you can do in order to educate yourself. How does memorizing vocabulary help you learn a language? Not at all. You need to combine the vocabulary with the grammar and literature of the language you are learning. Learning vocabularies for a quiz is useless regarding education, because you will forget them straight after the quiz. It's just like in math. If you memorize the pattern to the solution, you're cool. But as soon as something comes up that you don't expect, you're clueless.

***** It is not impossible to teach someone to think. My step mother has been a teacher for several years, and when she explains something, she doesn't just tell you what it is and to remember it. She will approach you from different angles, and have you thinking about how to get to the solution. She will only guide you. You have to do the thinking yourself. Once it clicks in your brain, you got the whole thing figured out. Now that you know how to think through the task, you can also deal with things that come unexpected. Someone who was told to memorize the solution pattern, would now be in trouble and have no concept whatsoever.

You can also find MANY (millions) with a degree that failed. Then, you also have those that ask themselves how someone like Jobs without a degree can be so successful. Society tells you that you have to get a degree to be successful, "education is the key". That's just a lie, and that's where this video is pointing at. What is important is knowledge, it doesn't matter how you get it. If you get it in school, good, if you get it some other way, even better. Your goals shouldn't be a degree and money, but knowledge and success

macrojd Do you have such a business idea that will make you millions of $? Without it and/or without a degree, you will only be hired for jobs that don't require a lot of pre-studied knowledge. For instance, you might work at the grocery store, or collect garbage, bus driver etc. If you can create a business that will secure your future, go for it. If not, working daily jobs can (and most likely will) be a pain in the ass. If you pursue a degree just for the money, then you won't be successful. You pursue a degree in a field of study that interests you. I didn't say that you will be automatically successful just because you earned a degree. However, you will have the least difficulty finding a job than someone, who is not specialized in a certain field. I know plenty of people that have pursued getting a degree. They are now all working in respective fields, make enough money that they don't have to worry about their finances, and live a happy stress limited life. On the other hand, I also know people that have not pursued further studies, and they are struggling now. Working close to minimum wage, difficulties paying their bills, constantly cutting back and sacrificing from things, stressed out, from time to time on welfare, and they are not certain for how long they will have their jobs. Society doesn't tell you anything. Society is just the world we live in, and it has its way of working. In the modern era, people such as engineers, physicists and scientists, mathematicians, computer programers and engineers, managers, accountants, lawyers etc are all fields, that are needed. Why do you think you can immigrate so easily into another country if you have a degree in one of those fields, and those who don't have a degree hardly get a residence permit? Its because, those are people that are needed in the modern workplace, not a hairdresser or a garbage collector. Society isn't telling or forcing you to get a degree. That's your own choice. But open your eyes: In the modern world, you are nothing without a degree. Sounds harsh, but its the truth.

LSBonnPower I think you still have a lot to learn about society and what it does, What it expectS from people, the life and the world that it proposes to the people that is involved in that society, The paths that are previously set for those people. Everything is planned for you. You are a social slave, unless you understand why and how society tells you what to do and how to do it. If you really think that "Society isn't telling or forcing you to get a degree" or "Society doesn't tell you anything" you are already a slave. It may sound like an insult but please don't take it that way. It's just reality. In fact, if we go further, you can even see how society murders you, convincing you that you HAVE to die and forcing you to accept dead without doing anything about it. That influential is society in the life people live and how they live it. And again, about getting a degree, the same way you can show me happy people with a degree I can show you pathetic people with a degree. Society tells you that a degree and education is the key, and that's a lie, as the video explains.

Not to say I don't want to be successful or that I'm lazy, but I want to go into amusement park type stuff and it seems like they're trying to only get me into a bland average job. Then, sorry if this is a bit off topic, but they assign us with summer work to make us always feel stressed and to try to turn us into drones who will do whatever someone says it seems like instead of being who we want to be.

When there are students who are so terrified at the prospect of getting a letter other than an A on their report card or test, when they would rather die than get out of bed in the morning to go to a place where they feel worthless every single day and when they feel sick at the idea of school, I think you should know that there is something very wrong with the education system that has been passed down for generations. Education should never ultimately be a value of what letter you get on a piece of paper but teaching kids to think for themselves, not turn them in mindless formula/fact memorising robots designed only to complete a test.

I just wish I knew what to do. I don't have any problems with school other than what you described. I love learning but it feels like a chore to learn. I think I'll just graduate high school & then start producing music. To tell you the truth the only reason I get up every day is because I want to make great music & spend whatever time I have to write lyrics. I don't really care about being a super rockstar or anything like that, but I do want to make enough money to provide for me & my family. I'm very unsure about this idea though......

My teachers tell me I'm lazy, not trying hard enough, failing. They compare past statistics to present numbers. School is not education, Education is intrinsic understanding of passion, not numbers, and it is not passing school. School offers a path for those who wish to simply add to something that is already built, a dream, a goal from another they constructed through their understanding and hard work. I may not be phenomenal at science, but i can rebuild a engine of almost any kind. I can play guitar, violin,and piano with ease. I can out work and out will anyone of my piers. Failing school when you give it all of your effort doesnt mean you are lazy, I believe it means you need to form your own path, instead of the one society laid out for you. Failing doesnt equal laziness, and you certainly wont get anywhere without effort. Failing just means you found one way a system will not work, so make your own

Carson Myers Excuses.... Do you know what the maximum effective range of an excuse is? 0 meters. Sounds to me your teachers are right you're making excuses why not try your hardest and prove them wrong you can only better yourself but instead you want to complain and only prove them right. Work smarter not harder figure out what works for you and then do it to succeed. Because in this world you better have an education or you're not going anywhere. And before you start naming off people who didn't have an education I want you to name as many as you can tell go on Google and look it up research it for the next year and then what I want you to do is look at the population of the world and then figure out the percentage of people who didn't go and get an education that succeeded to the point that they made millions upon millions of dollars if not billions and are a complete success today compared to the overall majority of the world that didn't go that route and instead got an education and became successful. That's just like somebody saying I'm not going to play sports but I'm going to play in the NBA or I'm going to be an Olympic gold medalist or I'm going to play in the NFL or I'm going to play in the Barclays League. You have to have that foundation in order to succeed and Sports in other words you have to move your way up through the ranks from a kid to adolescent to a young adult to hopefully as an adult you make it in the big time but if you look at how many people play sports as children that actually make it as a professional athlete it's painfully obvious how hard it is. The same applies to education you have to have it in order to succeed you have to crawl before you can walk and you have to walk before you can run.

Then they expect you to socilize even when you have no time. Oh and did I mention the mean, judgemental kids? Don't even get me started,

Looking at all these comments that go against this video simply tells me that you guys don't get the message. The title simply saids it all "Why I hate school but love education", no but some of you are taking this waaaay out of context. He is not encouraging laziness nor is he saying to not pursue a degree. He is simply speaking on the behalf of school and education. Being educated and being schooled is two different things. You see, if you are educated than it means that you have a complete logical understanding of that subject. But being schooled is what was mentored by an educated person with an logical understanding.... *you just been schooled*

One question I've always had in my head is, "Who are you without school, grades, and education alike"? All these kids who cry over getting an 89% on an exam, who spend their whole weekends studying for a test they don't give a damn about, who are they when all that is taken away? Who are you without all the external influences and predisposed ideas affecting your own thoughts? Do you really enjoy solving for the missing angle in a triangle, or learning about the chemical makeup of a cell, when you have no desire to become a biologist or chemist in the future? To all you adults out there, when's the last time you've used ANY of the subject material you learned in grade school? Sure maybe its good to know about how the physical world works, and how the different nations on our earth have come to be, but how does any of that help you build and grow as a person? Does it teach you how to see other people's perspectives, or to show compassion to the people around you, strangers included, or to think for yourself and form your own opinions and ideas? Are you really living your own life? Or are you following a guide and a path that someone else has formed for you? Whats most important at the end of the day is YOU, not what someone else thinks of you, not someone else's opinion on what best for you, etc. We all know our education system is outdated, and frankly, I don't feel comfortable following something that was developed so long ago, with nothing in mind but the control and the "greater good" of a nation, not the individual. Why do you think the arts, and other creative, mind provoking subjects are so poorly funded and supported? The powers that keep us in control have a certain agenda, and how we feel about it does not matter to them. We grow up, being taught and conditioned to think and act in a certain, limiting ways. We go to school, put countless hours and loads of energy into subjects most of us have no interest in, just to go to suped-up, less restrictive versions of the same thing in college. We present employers a nice fancy piece of paper showing that we graduated, even though all it takes is the ability to remember facts, dates, names and numbers, and to plan for following assessments accordingly, much like what a robot would do. Most of us give in to the corporate slavery that is working as an adult, where all we do is go to our mostly boring, repetitive jobs, make money, buy consumer goods, pay taxes, etc. Where is the LIFE in that? In this whole process, where is there room to think freely and follow our own desires and ambitions? School does not TEACH us to do any of this, it only delays our pre-programmed, voluntary submission into a system designed to keep us down, and follow orders given by people who's thoughts and ideas may not be any better than our own. Only the most intelligent (and often outspoken :/ ) of us can see through the facade and open up our eyes for once in our lives. I don't presume to know everything, as I am only 16, but what I do know is that true joy stems from doing what you want to do, because you want to do it, not because someone else told you to. Like I said I'm not trying to act like I know all there is to know about whats going on in this world, but I, at the very least, encourage you to think for yourself, and find ways to do what you enjoy. Money can be made in a myriad of ways, don't let that be the sole factor that decided what life you're going to live, what job you're going to have. Don't be afraid to look into and research what doesn't sit right with you. Its ok to let go of certain thoughts and beliefs that, although may have brought you comfort and "ignorant bliss", may not have been the best for you in the grand sense of things. Love you all :)

What a lot of people seem to miss in this video is that he never once said not to go to school. All he said is that you should be making your own choices in regard to your education and your life. He even specifically said that school isn't evil. If you want to do something where you need a college degree, then go get a college degree because you want to, not because you feel obligated for whatever reason. His point is that if you want to do something where you don't need one, and you don't want one, why get one? He doesn't support abandoning getting an education, he supports making your own choice. Being an individual. If your choice is to continue school, then go to school. Yes, you can be successful with or without a degree. Make your choice about whether or not you need one.

There are thousands of drop-outs who never made anything of their lives for every drop-out success story. Yes, it can happen, but the odds are stacked against you. The best way to get those odds in your favour is with a diploma or degree. Otherwise, the odds are that your future career will involve the words "You want fries with that?"

People are missing the message of his speech. He isn't saying to not go to school. He clearly states that education is important. He is trying to tell people that they shouldn't stress and summit themselves to a "standard" system of learning, for there is more than one way to "educate" yourself. Some of the people he named (Jesus, Mohammed, David Beckham) they weren't educated to a degree (and in some of the cases educaucated at all) yet the were educators..they tought people things, they were still successful. He was asking us why we were going to a Unviersity if we OURSELVES didn't know what our for "learning" was (when he refers to the "students wait in line like zombies to turn in a assignment") he was stating that they were there to be there...just following the status quo of getting to the next step. Listen and look deeper into the context... His points are really valid.

Such a true video, my dad had a GED because he was terrible at school. And now look at him even though he died, selling his oil company years ago for $7.2M. And even starting broke poor. As soon as I graduate in a few days I will go to the Marine Corps and then start my own business when I am out. If you want to be successful in the world, why make someone else rich with a job instead of making yourself rich. Starting your own company is the key to riches my friends.

My dad started a company and made tens of millions of dollars too. He did it with the skills he developed while earning his master's degree. The truth is that neither of our anecdotes prove the value (or lack thereof) of school, and that the success rate of starting companies is a abysmal.

this is so true. I honestly love learning and the subjects I'm studying at school. but school just ruins it by turning learning into a chore, and with the atmosphere of judgement and academic pressure. not to mention they don't teach you some of the most important skills in life. they don't even teach you how to get a job or how to function in society.

Epic Senpai I haven't read the comments, but I will say this:I do not defend our education system, which is no where near to ideal, but the points this guy made in his video are just not related or helping his idea. So what if their is ten, or hundrent, or a million people who could get to an amazing place without school? these people are UNIQE, they are abnormal, they are prodigies, and even if there is a million of these prodigies (and there isn't a million of them) then this is a million divided by 7 billion, that means they are ~0.014% of the population, that's REALY low, and you can't count on that the you would like them. It's stupid to hear 12-18 year old teens that say: "It's ok, einstein also failed math (which is not true)" Or students who say: "It's ok Steve Jobs dropped out of college and look where it got him". Well new flash, you're probably not steve jobs, and you need to study because YOU'RE NOT A PRODIGY. simple as that.

I'm trying to give them to warning, don't count on it that you can be a prodigy, most software developers and such innovators DIDN"T dropped out of school or failed like that, they usually are very bright and have succecful background.

I really love this video. I'm a seventeen year old girl who had passions in multiple things, but people try to tell me: "No, you can't chase your dream. You are not qualified enough in these certain aspects." Or- "That's not a real job." Trying to tell children who are told one moment they are too young to make decisions for themselves, and the next to choose what they want to do / how to spend the rest of their life. I find it completely hypocritical, why should my dreams define anyone but myself? How can I learn from my mistakes if everyone around me is preventing them? I have a job on top of education, and I pay a few personal bills, nothing major, but it frustrates me people are so focused on what society tells them, they would trade common sense + being wise, and not to mention in my own opinion, true intelligence, for a grade and a gold sticker, and then surprise, usually after you finish college/uni good luck finding/getting a job; because in this economy none are truly available, it's a double edged sword. I hope anyone struggling finds their passions and succeeds, because this society is, for lack of words, suckish. :/

Some of the dumbest people you will ever meet are in a college classroom, point being going to school doesn't mean you're educated. Malcolm X was highly educated and never stepped foot on a college campus. Going to college is good, but if you're only learning inside of a classroom your knowledge is limited, because history and knowledge extends well beyond a classroom. In order to be truly educated one must research, read, and study things on their own outside of the classroom. Getting good grades in school only means you're good at memorizing information ( most of the time)

So in the U.K when kids are 10/11 we do these test called SATs. You do Maths grammar and reading. I was put in a group because I had the ability to get a 5. But I got a 4 in maths. Many kids were put in a group because they could get 6's the highest you guess. I was a few marks away from a 5. You know why because I did something to show my working out by writing it. But it said to do a number calculation. I spent nights up revising because I needed to get a 5. I love art but we did art well once every two months. But maths everyday. I know you need maths but my principal did assemblys every monday saying he loved creativity. But what he actually meant was that if it's academic or sports tell us. No artistic views allowed. We were like robots. All the same. I was put under pressure everyday. Bruh now I'm in high school. Humanties is basically reading a text book and answering question. Can I remember anything about the battle of hastings no.

Holly Taylor During primary school, I was legitimately the top male boy in the school, getting an award for top academically achieving male, being somewhere in the top 2% in the world, but now in highschool, I have no motivation to do good and I just started getting terrible grades, schools insanely painful and especially because of the amount of time it takes out of our lives with school time and homework. I've been self studying music at home because even the music course at school doesn't even teach us how to compose, just play which annoys the heck out of me. My entire family excluding my mum is like this, my brother was terrible in high school, but now his only studying a single subject as a side job, (his main is a voice actor) which is IT, and his getting 95%+ for every test when at school he was on the verge of repeating each year. Pretty well paid jobs are already thinking about him once he finishes in a year. My dad use to hate school and he started working at a factory. In only 6 months he was promoted to the 2nd highest possible one, whilst others were working for years without a single promotion because of the way he thought, he had an invention which made the factories efficiency rate increase a pretty big amount and a whole bunch of other small stuff making that happen to him.

School is indoctrination. Remember this quote from Mark Twain: " I will not let schooling interfere with my education". You certainly don't need to go to college to become educated nowadays. Most things you need to know can be found on the Internet, and you certainly don't need to waste tens of thousands of dollars to become "educated" by college. Pretty much the only reason anyone goes to college anymore is because many jobs now require you to have a college degree even though you don't really need a college degree for the job. College is really a huge waste of money if you are expecting it to educate you. The only reason anyone goes to college is to hope that their degree can land them with a high-paying job. I noticed since high school that I was learning way more stuff on the Internet than from my classes in school. I noticed since first year of college that I was learning more stuff on the Internet than my courses at college. It is a complete lie that you need to have good grades in school to become financially successful. Some of the richest people in the world never finished either high school or university. I heard of people making hundreds of thousands of dollars a year selling drugs, and the people doing this don't even have a high school diploma. I am not saying you need to sell drugs to become financially successful, but you certainly do not need a university degree to make a lot of money. Hell, you don't even need to finish high school. But I suggest you finish high school just to make people not think you are lazy. But finishing university is mostly a matter of being able to afford it, and has little to do with your intellect or perseverance. So screw university, and only go if you are able to meet the following criteria: 1) Don't go to university unless you are able to afford it without student loans. Student loan debt is very crippling to your financial ability after university is finished. Minimize the amount of money you spend for university by going to school at a local place (that way you don't need to pay for living expenses, and you can just live with your parents while going to school) 2) Major in something where the knowledge for the subject can't simply be learned from the Internet i.e. becoming a surgeon because you need to go to school to acquire the skills for becoming a surgeon 3) Major in something that can actually land you with a high paying job i.e. a surgeon If you can't satisfy the above criteria, then screw university, and go to an apprenticeship, learn a trade or start your own business. Instead of indoctrinating kids that they must go to university to be successful, we should teach kids to become successful based on their own skills rather than earning an overvalued and mostly worthless university degree.

AmandaNerdBot Well said man:) Just want to share a few awesome quotes I've saved: "You enter school as a kid and the next 15 years is dedicated to molding you to listen and obey. The people at the top don’t want a society of thinkers, they want worker bees that never question anything. Once you get that new house, new car, and credit card bills, you’re now a slave to the system. People sell out their potential and dreams just so that they can keep up with the Jones. We only have one shot at life, why settle for being a hamster in a wheel?" - Charles Ngo "School teaches you how to do what other people want you to do. It teaches you how to submit. It teaches you how to be a drone. Taking the career path less traveled takes you to some strange places, but its lessons are better than those taught in any classroom." - Susannah Breslin "When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy.’ They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.” -John Lennon

Exoro another thing I would like to point out is that nobody gives a shit about your grades in school outside of school. Nobody cares you were a straight A student from high school to college. At the end of the day, what people care about is how much MONEY you make, and how successful you are in life has absolutely nothing to do with your grades in school. Based on my personal experience, our "education" system (more like indoctrination system) is very successful at creating obedient people who blindly follow authority. This is why people are so willing to believe in propaganda from the mainstream media. However, some people, despite spending over a decade of being abused by the schooling establishment, are still able to critically think, and see what the system is actually like. School is designed to make you into someone else's bitch. I see nothing with dropping out of school, and pursing your own dreams because people like that are the ones who end up becoming the most successful rather than people who willingly become enslaved by the system known as school.

My God, you know. When I was younger as a high school senior. I was called evantually crazy, a dreamer, stupid, dumb, people laughed at me, made fun of me... At my 17, a senior was the year I revealed myself and took the first step to be myself. No one knew my History Or my Darker past. I list plenty of friends because we used to be known as Kinda the wild populair jerks and etc. So with that Popularity I lost everyone and when the faillures came I lost everything. People, even teachers who used to believe in me, gave up on me. I remembered how one teacher was dissapointed because I wasn't the person they taught I was. I gave it my life and soul to make my Dream a reality. However I Told myself that it didn't matter how many people would give up on me. As long I didn't so despite whatever and everything I fought on and again and again. Even when they all Said it was impossible and laughed. I was probably the dumbest of my class. However after high school I Kinda rolled into leading an organisation and evantually turned it into national company. As my second job I was an actor/director. Again when I followed that path there were people who told me I would never make it. Because I am Asian. My path was lonely, hard and rough however I was able to turn my biggest enemies who were supposed to bring me down into my biggest strengths. I'm 21 now I made a council to help me lead the organisation. Since it was not my main Dream yet. So I Could still act and study further. I can't explain it. When the whole worlds tells you you can't every bone and muscle within you tells you, yes you can. You go on afraid but brave. Because this is my Dream and screw those who can't see it for me. Because I haven't come to make friends but to win. What I learned it's not about winning so much but about not giving up. If you are true to yourself and your dedication to your Dream. You Will never lose a battle. Each second counts. Even when I was like becoming Kinda succesfull here in Europe I even started to have more haters. Not for who I was or how I threated people. But for what I did. They taught I was stupid cuz there wasn't Anyone else who worked that hard as me Or took all those crazy actions. Even when I failed I still came back no matter what to do it again. I told my teacher once they Could take all the time from me that they want I don't care. I'm here to win and I don't care what might Appose me. I have come too far to give up now. Funny thing is I am 21 and I am the first person of that school who became CEO at 18 and made it. The only millionaire and since a few weeks I just made it as a rising actor in that industry. Suddenly all my friends came back. Not sure what to do with them. However even If I did. I wouldn't care since the matter of fact I'm always working. But this vid made me feel warm and gave me a tear. Since it's all true. I have been known as one of the dumbest persons cuz of my grades. Even had to double a year. Yet I'm the only one who made it since the simple fact I believe in more. More for me. Because to me it was all personal. Never Quit.

That's not to say you should drop out but you shouldnt let it define you nor consume your "true" goal. Personally i think everyone should finish HS just to get a sense of what they're interested in, but more importantly what they're not interested in.

Michael Jerome okay so what's your point less than 1000 of a percent of people who didn't go to college to become super successful now I want you to look at how many people did go to college and became successful. If you look at that number you'll see the education Trump's no education by a vast majority.

I think many of our problems these days is many people limit their focus on wealth. Money is important, but is nothing more than a social construct. I wouldn't mind an unpaid internship, experience is more valuable than just a degree in many situations.

"Let's look at the statistics" - proceeds to list names of people who did not match the statistics. Genius.

Steve Jobs, Oprah, Richard B., Bill Gates, Henry Ford, Malcome X, Steven S., Mark Z., Mother Teresa, Muhammad Ali, Beethoven, Shakespeare, Shawn Carter, Michael Jordan, Michael Jackson, all either did not go, or did not Graduate from a Higher learning institution. So your argument is actually invalid. Please educate yourself, before calling someone else uneducated.

Statistics is a presentation of data. Those people being the data in people who have gained success without going to college. Also, just because your family is rich doesn't mean you'll do well yourself. You have to work for yourself, although having financial support from your parents does help, it won't do it all for you. Also, sure most of them probably had money before their fame(Atleast their parents did.) But how about the others who came from a poor background, why ignore them? They came from nothing and made themselves into something.

How are you able to come up with such strong, brilliant, and profound words. Isn't it hard performing your own work on KZfaq in front of millions a people. Have you ever been criticized for speaking the truth.

This really hit home. Im currently in University and just flunked out of my department, currently across the ocean from my mother country and family. I am at a crossroad with no idea where to go. Watching this gave me a bit of relief.
