Every human being is gifted with some talent or other. Education enhance our inborn talents and make us think and get a solution for problems. Education and success are co-related. And in everybody's mind, meaning of success is earning enormous money.
We cannot live like Stone Age humans. We need amenities, comforts, and happiness. Definitely, education alone will not fetch us all these things. But education is the path to get the financial success.
As our population is alarmingly increasing, India is not able to provide higher education to all the talented and deserving students. Seats of professional courses are limited.
Those who can clear NEET or IIT JEE, CAT can get free seats. Others who are equally talented have to pay more for management seats to get admission.
Now the trend is of going to USA or Europe for higher education. It will cost minimum 15 lakhs per year in USA. And 5-7 lakhs in Europe. If you have money then only you can afford these education.
So this is like a vicious circle. If you are educated, you can earn money. And if you have money you can get education. For the sake of argument and to impress I can say education is better than money. But in reality both are equally important and inseparable.
