Education, is it really neccessary?
Which of the stalls in the coffeeshop do u think will earn the
most?
Coffeeshop owners? All they have to do is to setup a drink stall,
collect rents and they can earn a lot more than many of us
here.
Or chicken rice sellers? who can easily afford a merz than those
who works in office with a degree or a master?
Or Wan Ton Mee sellers? who wears gold rings, gold chains and gold
necklaces mroe than other people?
Are they really educated people? Do they also have a piece of paper
like many of us but decided to open a coffeshop and work in a hot
and noisy environment rather than sitting comfortably in the
office?
Or, they are just the ones with not much education but they are
lucky enough to have the capital to open up a coffeeshop?
Someone told me, he knew a friend who carrys rice sacks those days
in boat quay (oh well, those were his days, so, it's obvious that
he's not ard our age!). How much do u think they can earn? One who
is very poor and with no education at all?
He's lucky. He's rich now...even richer than his boss who hired
him. His boss likes him a lot and gave him a lot of work to do,
followed by management level of work. How many people can get such
luck?
Is education really necessary? Somehow i felt that only those with
good academic results will excel. Those with no education, but has
the luck will also excel.
How about those with good education but still sits in the office
earning $2K to $3k per month? Even a cook in the coffeshop can earn
more than them!! (those Zi Char stalls)
No such luck? Too bad..
Maybe i should consider setting up a chicken rice stall..
But of coz, business must be good. or else, it will definitely
close down in 2-3 mths time, considering the fact that money has to
be spend on helpers, rents, etc.
Sometimes, i wish i can go and interview those stall owners and
have a deeper understanding of each and their individual life
stories.
