Hi all! i am a third year student of electrical engineering. I would like to ask you about the relationship between good education and salary. I think each of you have your own purpose in attending higher education, for example like by having more title to get more salary. So what do you think abaout it? is there any linear relationship between them? And what is your purpose in attending higher education?

Yes thats very true it does cost a lot for a good education which I think is not right. Because a lot of people want to go to school but they cant afford it they shoud make it affordible for everyone to go to so you have no excuses of why you cant go to college.

Not always, but it can help in particular professions, just because in some professions its mandatory to have the right degree for it, like law, medicine, engineering etc etc. I think education helps you specialise in a subject. But for some people who just want to work a general job and work their way up and see where they get, that's fine too, or starting their own business, or being self-employed.
