Formal education will make you a living; self-education will

Summary

This quote emphasizes the significant difference between formal education and self-education. While formal education, such as earning degrees and qualifications, may provide job opportunities and financial stability, it is self-education that has the potential to bring vast wealth and prosperity. Self-education refers to the continuous process of acquiring knowledge and skills outside of traditional academic institutions. By actively seeking out information, honing one's abilities, and investing time in personal growth, individuals can cultivate expertise and unlock opportunities that can lead to greater success and fortune beyond what formal education alone can provide.
