The most important thing is to have the knowledge. Many people study and receive a paper called "diploma", but they know nothing, so unless they are politicians or son/daughter/relative of someone important they go from place to place and in the end they end doing other things or secondary and less important thing with less payment.

On the other side, if you have the knowledge but haven't the piece of paper called "diploma", sometimes you have problem and you are barred because you haven't this piece of paper. Even so, you can manage pretty well and have a good and well payed job, after all you know how to do, and this is what is important.

If you have the knowledge and a also piece of paper called "diploma", it is a perfect combination and all the doors are open for you.

Knowledge is for free, you can learn by yourself and today with internet is very easy, the only thing you need is the desire, dedication and discipline to learn. If you don't want to learn you will not learn.

If you want the piece of paper called "diploma" then you must pay for it or someone else pay it for you, it is not free!... Well in some countries it is for free....

 

PS. Before you think anything, I have the piece of paper called "diploma"

Stupidity also evolves!
