Why to get more education?
|
First… Why should you care? Over and over, we have heard from our parents or at school the same story. Study hard. Get a good degree. With the good degree, a good job. Then, work hard. That’s the perfect receipt to be permanently frustrated about how little money you make, and how much money others make. No matter if you are an operator or a CEO. The money that you make out of selling your time never tastes fulfilling. If you care about that, you should continue your education until you die. Not more degrees necessarily. But just more experience. You need to expose yourself to new things. You need to learn new things. And why? Just to have more options. Knowing every day more and more about less and less is also following the path of slavery. You limit the companies you can work for. You limit the positions you can work on. And if you didn’t take care of your finances… You limit enormously the offers that you can accept for that job in that company. So, continuing your education, trying new things, get exposed to new people, thinking, mindsets, businesses, opinions, etc. is just a way to give you more options.

I love the UK’s market… it has shown us so many things… Let’s take for example the UK Post Office. Early 2010s. The guys had a problem. Its Horizon accounting system said money was disappearing. Yeah… just like that… And you still wonder about Brexit… Anyway… the Post Office blamed the usual suspects… the people operating it. Hundreds were prosecuted. Some went to prison. Lives were destroyed. And for years, the official position remained essentially the same: The system works. Ole, with 2...
I always say that politicians cost taxpayers billions. And not because of their salaries, the salaries of their friends and advisers, or the favours repaid while they are in office—or afterwards. No. Because of their incompetence and lack of common sense. For example… Never announce the marriage while you are still negotiating the prenup. This is common sense. Still, politicians with billions in their hands throw common sense in the bin. We even have well-documented cases. With papers… And...
A few weeks ago, I had a call with a colleague in Kenya. He told me about the chaos surrounding the proposed PPP at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. He may even be reading this email. Hello. The story is quite impressive. Kenya needed to expand its main airport. That part was not controversial. JKIA was already operating above its designed capacity. It needed a new terminal.
