Education is important or not? As you can see the trends nowadays, new generation or known as Gen Z thinks that education is not important. They think that going to school is wasting of time which they rather use it to do others things such as doing live on Tiktok/Instagram. They have a new side of viewing that with very basic and just your social skills you can earn money easily. There is no denying the fact that its easy money to make nowadays but it is not for a long term. It is kind seasonal.
We don't know if these trends of being "Influencer" is sustainable in the future. We do not know as the trends keep on changing from time to time. New trends or AI have been covering our life day by day but at least with education you can use it to offer an idea on how to improve things in life according to your background of study/field.
For example, in medical industry you can do your research with the helps of the education you received all way long to make things better in the future. You could change your future as well as others too. It will impact on the growth of economy as well as your household economy which you will received money/salary every month.
It will also helps you financially as you received what you earn. Although being an Influencer (without proper background of education) can make easy money, it won't last long. Your famed won't be long. People come and go and your followers/fans might not stay with you for long. Thus, your financial will become less.
With education you can apply for vacant jobs which probably align with your study background/ field. Your salary will be rise from time to time and some people will changing their jobs every 2-3 years. You will received more opportunities.
Education also will helps you growth as you will learn more in school/college about other cultural, heritage, social skill, interpersonal skill, communication, teamwork and others.
