We spend almost 12 years attending school. We grew up with dreams of one day, we will be working.

Is it worth it to study all these years but with no results? They say in order to reach your goals you have to study hard. Well there we go! We study, we graduate, then what? Settle for unemployment?

Is it worth it to study for a qualification that at the end you find no jobs of? These days we only receive emails that make us ask ourselves whether was it worth it to study all these years only to settle for unemployment, being a stay-at-home graduate?

We study and get degrees, diplomas and so on, but end up being shop workers, being street hawkers, working as general workers and becoming nannies so that we can earn something for a leaving, to be able to put something on a table at home, not to be called a useless person.

We work hard to achieve our goals, but we end up getting disappointed. I can count all and more. So as I ask again, IS EDUCATION WORTH A HUSTLE?
