Pop If your kid learns these skills, they can skip college and get rich

Postby Netherrealmer » 25 Nov 2019, 18:48

The Youngest self made billionaire right now is Kylie Jenner and I know people are debating whether she is self made or not but one thing I know about her is she is not a college graduate. I know many people see college as the escape to poverty but there are so many college graduates who lives in poverty.

This guy is a college graduate and he is homeless and can't find a job.
Image

This lady suffered financially after graduating college because of her student loans.


Many college grads ends up super poor, homeless , unhealthy and depressed because the fairy tale ending they got promised before graduating college never came true. A huge number or porn actresses are college grads who cant find jobs. Before most porn actresses are high school dropouts but now unemployed college grads.

There are now parents who just teach certain skills that can make them rich and not need college anymore. So if you can let your kids develop these talents, they may not need college anymore.

Coding-A huge number of college dropout millionaires and billionaires have computer skills. I can't remember the name but there is a billionaire, who didnt even went to highschool. After he graduated middle school, his mom makes him learn coding or how to program computers. That ability to code, managed to make him make a software that become a billion dollar asset. If you can program computers, make websites, softwares and apps by your own, You may not need a college degree. Bill Gates is a college drop out. I know there are people who at a very young age had abilities to do coding.


Marketing-I remember a saying my economics teacher told me once as a kid. "If you can turn S**t into gold, nothing is impossible." What does this silly quote mean? If you are good as selling you will get rich. A huge number of billionaires are sales people who knows how to sell, how to negotiate and make deals. Though there is a marketing college course, it is a skill that can be learned at a very young age. Many kids who learned marketing at a young age became rich.

Fraser Doherty, this guy on the picture below got rich at age 14 because of a small Jam business he started.
Image

He shamelessly made calls to supermarkets to try selling his Jams and rejection didn't stop him. His self learned marketing skills got him investors at young age.

Speaking skills- Kinda related to marketing. If you are good speaker, You are golden. You will be better at marketing, negotiating, selling, pitching etc. A person who can speak well will go far.

I use wrestlers as examples.

This is Lance Storm, One of the most talented wrestlers of all time.
Image He have a very diverse moveset. He is super Athletic and he is so good at wrestling he became a trainer. Guess what? His wrestling career failed? Why because wrestling is scripted, Mic skills or speaking skills are more valued.

This is John Cena, Everyone knows this guy. He is actually not a good wrestler. His moveset is like composed of 5 moves. As in he is a super boring wrestler.
Image

Why is he so successful? Why did they script him to win multiple championships? Over Lance Storm who is a better performer? Well John Cena can talk.

A huge number of high paying jobs requires speaking. From Online English teachers to Game streamers. Mic skills is the key to success. A person who can talk will always get a career. From job interviews to pitches to clients, A person who can speak will always succeed.

The most successful game streamers on Youtube have great mic skills and that mic skills got them subscribers enough to get their channels monetized.


Resilience-
A person who is not resilient will quit an opportunity the moment it steps on their door because they kept self doubting themselves. How can you say you will fail if you never tried it? Most resilient people are not afraid to fail and uses failure as a stepping stone to success.

Resourcefulness- The ability to make something of what is available. A resourceful person can find all the connections needed to succeed. This is the skill many people lack which is a shame because it is something that can be learned from childhood. I remember the story of a boy who noticed that his mom's garden have lots of flowers. He decided to keep bees and that leads to a honey business.

I think I listed enough, if this did well I might make a sequel. Hope you enjoyed this article.

College is a scam. You don't need college to make money. All the richest guys like bill gates
dropped out. Once you have goals and vision you can earn a lot.
hell these days kids just have to have gaming and mic skills to get rich.
Times have changed. and now college will be a thing of the past.

I have mic skills... i do good on live videos..
And podcasts. But I use my voice for gaming since it gets more views fast.
But I will still do other things with voice.
I think since now pages can be monetized on facebook it will make it easier
for even podcasters to make money video bloggers.. gamers etc.
I also can change my voice and do character and celeb voices..
imagine.. Jack Nichalson plays mobile legends lol it would be so funny
people do reacts videos. but what if there was parody of famous people
playing new games and old games lol

I agree with you as college doesn't mean anything if the student unable to be equipped with correct skill that needed in the modern era like resourcefulness. This is important in the new era as we need to find and gather all the resources that we can have either offline or online.

I remember in an episode of Shark Tank, A harvard graduate failed to get investors because she relies too much on academics. She is too booksmart but not streetsmart. A resourceful person have the streetsmart to always find a way to make something of the situation.

That was a Gem of an Article!! Where do you get all this insight and depth of conveying things. Yes, being a graduate or a degree holder with good marks cannot ensure many things, as job or Business life is so so different from school and college life.
Here in India, students bring so high marks, but many fail later on, or are not so successful.
And yes, communication skills matter a lot.

I remember an old discussion on Mylot about this lady:
Image

She is the owner of the biggest bookstore franchise in the Philippines. She is an elementary graduate only. She stopped studying at 6th grade. She worked a sales lady on a bookstore and once it gave her idea how bookstores run, she founded a small bookstore and now every mall in her country have a branch of her bookstore.

No student loans problem and filthy rich.

LOL. College is not a scam. I don't know why you guys have such an attitude about college. :lol: :lol:

There are a lot of benefits derived from attending college. Getting your education is only a part of it. Sometimes you meet your future partner for life. Sometimes you make friends with someone who become a business partner with and you become super successful. Sometimes you meet a professor that truly influences you, and motivates and inspires you. Sometimes ...

I could go on. No matter. I will not convince you and you will not convince me. COLLEGE IS NOT A SCAM!!! I'm not changing my mind, :D

Of course College is not a scam, besides there are skills that can help us a lot, college is also important and college will never be a thing from the past. College are needed and indispensable for some professions like doctors, teachers, pharmacy and so many more.

I agree with you. It's not a scam. People can still benefit from it. But its educational system must be updated. It must align with the 21'st century's needed skills.

It is a scam, student loans alone is enough proof its a scam. Unemployed college graduates is enough evidence its a scam. I learned more useful skills on my high school home economics class than college. If I can turn back time, I will be streaming videogames and teaching English online at age 16 and do stocks at age 18.

Every skill you needed to learn is now available for free in a free rabbit hole of information. I didn't need to graduate an Agriculture course to have a thriving farm. I just watched videos from the Justin Rhoades and Becky's homestead Youtube channel.

College is only useful if you are a STEM person. I had met enough dirt poor college graduates and rich drop outs to be pro-college. A person with financial literacy and resourcefulness doesn't need the student loans trap.

I don't know about Tier and Tier 2 countries, however, in my home country, a Toter 3 country, you need college degree to get good-paying jobs. If you do not have a degree you will end up going to the Middle east for low paying laborer jobs.

I am from the middle east. I dont do low tier jobs, I do online writing jobs and I teach English online. I mentored my 16 year old niece who is a drop out and she teaches English now too and makes more money than me. Here is the thing, Online Jobs don't really make background checks. The Tiers thing is BS because my country is bottom tier. You wont need to search for a job if you created your own app. You don't need diploma if you are a popular influencer. You don't need diploma if you stream videogames on twitch.

Now 15 year old kids are making money from stocks exchange. A boy just become a millionaire from stocks. Speaking of stocks, I learn how to do stocks not from school but from a subreddit.

If you have financial literacy, You will not need college.

I am sorry but what is a stem person? :eh:
I still think college is needed for many jobs and some are really essential for our daily lives.

The thing is I don't want a Job, I want to be the provider of jobs. All the helpful skills I have now are not from college but from self studying. College is not the only way to success.

The moment this boy learned marketing, he quits school and sold donuts. He now owns multiple donut chains.


He got capital from school allowance.

This boy quits school after learning how to work with stocks and crypto


This girl becomes a millionaire the moment she learns how to make soap:


She didnt do college after her soap business took off.

Actually it is being updated. For one thing when I was attending university there was no such things as online classes. That in itself has changed the educational system. Another thing that is being done is that college courses are being offered online free to people, all around the world, who would likely never have this opportunity. Some people are concerned about getting a degree from a recognized institution, so they won't embrace this opportunity. But for those who do, they certainly won't graduate with a huge amount of student loan debt. This technology has truly open doors, advance higher education and made it accessible to the masses. That's the way education should be. It shouldn't be just for the "elite".

STEM is Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math.

Anyway! Since I can't convince others and they can't convince regarding the benefits of attending college, I'm sharing these links I found today.

I remember to be a broadcaster, You need to finish a journalism course or a Mass Communication course. Now Random Youtubers with Mic Skills are getting hired for the job even without diplomas. A Youtuber in my region is now a news caster, Heck WWE is now hiring Youtuber as interviewers instead of Journalism graduates.

Well I guess I will have to let the daughter of my daughter's friend know. She's 11 years old and asked me if you had to go to college to be a newscaster. I told her she would need a degree in journalism. But I guess I better tell her I have to revise my answer. She and her little sister are very savvy when it comes to using YouTube. Maybe she won't need a degree after all.

For me college shaped and molded me. I have also been able to work on some great opportunities cause of my papers.
The problem with the youth nowadays they spend so much time on social media than on getting inspiration. We all have creativity within us. We are all special and there is nothing that limits us from such opportunities.
