why disagreeing isnt bad. and i think it was me who disagreed with you. i dont think disagreeing is bad. it leads to conversation and hearing hte other side and possibly realizing the truth if you are wrong.

lol yea i agree. but it is true tho that some of the most successful people are business men or entrepreneurs who dont necesarily have much of an education. just had an idea and developed on it.

If you don't know how to do a job it doesn't matter where you try to find work - you will not earn a lot of money ..
Even for the internet you must know what you are doing and how ..and thats a part of education :)

I think you have to know the right people in order to make a decent salary. I know people that have BA, BS, Master Degrees; and they are not even working in the field they got there degree in and the pay stinks. Seems almost like wasted time.

Correct we think the same on that issue. This world is a dog eat dog world and people will devour you if they can.

It depends the job you want to have. If you like to be an administrator, yes, the education is important. But I know many educated people that they don't have a good job. They even work as labours.

Online jobs have no relations with your qualifications whatsoever
In real, if you get yourself more qualified obviously you will earn more and more
