What are the advantages of having an education?

Answer 1

You can't get into a good college or university these days without at least a high school education. You will get higher paying jobs, your jobs will have more benefits, and they will be more laborious.

The best reason to go to college is to learn more about the world you live in. You may have put off going to college because you weren't ready, or couldn't afford it. Now as you think about college again, there are other benefits that a college education offers.

Getting a college degree is a career necessity in today's business world. College graduates earn nearly twice as much during their working years as high school graduates. New information from the U.S. Census Bureau reinforces the value of a college education: workers 18 and over with a bachelor’s degree earn an average of $51,206 a year, while those with a high school diploma earn $27,915. Workers with an advanced degree make an average of $74,602, and those without a high school diploma average $18,734. College graduation will qualify you for many jobs that would not be available to you any other way. Your career advancement should be easier because some job promotions require a college degree.

A college education will help you develop your skills in reasoning, tolerance, reflection, and communication. These skills will help you resolve the conflicts and solve crisis that come up in the course of a personal or professional life. A college education will also help you understand other people's viewpoints, and learn how to disagree sensibly.

A satisfied life depend upon the rational resolution of conflicts and crises. Of course, these critical skills can be developed without going to college, but the college environment has proven to be a good place to practice, learn and polish skills that will last you a lifetime.

Many college graduates feel that the greatest benefit of their college years is the expansion of their social horizons. Meeting new people, making new friends, companionship, and sharing new experiences lead to personal growth. The skill of meeting and sharing information with people is known as networking. College graduates say that contacts they made in college often helped them find the job they wanted Others report that friends in college were tied to their own career climb. College graduates describe the value of these networks as having expanded their horizons from the tribal village to the global village.

Answer 2

Generally you do get better jobs and more pay.

High School education makes about 18K, AA degree can get you 20K starting, BA degree can get you 22 to 39K starting, Masters degree can get you 27 to 45K starting, a PH D can get you 32 to 60K starting

A friend of mine is a Chemist with a BA degree and he worked at a film processing lab. When the head of the left they replaced him with another guy who had a PH D, because a PH D was required as a Lab head. My friend, the BA chemist, had to teach him how to do all the work, but he would NEVER be qualified for the job nor NEVER get the pay.

A have a friend with 3 years of college who is a Para Legal and he's worked for 15 years now and makes about $50K a year, which is starting pay for a lawyer fresh out of school at an office like his. He will NEVER make much more than 65K without getting his law degree.

If he gets his law degree he'd probably be upped to $85 or $90K a year because of his experience.

My Uncle was an ORDERLY at a mental hospital. They eventually trained him to lead group theraphy sessions. But he was making the same 18K doing therapy as he was just being an orderly. They told him if he went back to school and got a nursing degree he could make more money, so he did and on the day he got his RN he was making $24K a year, although he was doing the same work as before.
