Education have always been important and is still valid. It remains valuable. The extant number of successful businesses does not entail we disregard education.
Do not feel that you can simply go into trading and forgo higher education. Let it be known that you deeply desire for it and for some reasons beyond your control you couldnāt pull it through. That simply means that when things get better studying further will top your to do lists.
You can not go wrong with more education. Worst scenario, you end up in a field different from what you studied or you venture into business.
Whatever situation it is, education is always applicable. You already have friends, have the sound knowledge to represent your brand when required.
Do not allow anyone tell you āeducation is scamā because it is not true. That you are doing well in business does not mean you disregard education or talk people off it.
Education opens doors.
Education can take you intentional.
Education paves way for growth.
Thereās more to education people.
If you are wealthy and think you are already made, you need it for better understanding of what your managers (your employees) do for you.
Businesses do require in-depth knowledge and elements of research (if not thorough research).
It is better you have the degree and work in a different field (unconsciously applying some of the knowledge) than not have it at all.
Permit me to say that most of the richest people that are known to the world have degrees. I wouldnāt bore you with those that went as far as having PhD.

So, if you have any essay, coursework or article you need help proofreading I can help, in my little way.
