Note: Education broadens the horizon. You get a lot of knowledge from different areas and become an interesting interlocutor. Very controversial argument. In my experience, the most interesting interlocutors are those who are passionate about something, and it does not matter what kind of education they received. It is much more interesting for me to communicate with a traveler who has graduated from primary school than with a top manager with a tower whose interests are limited to career and acquisitions of consumer goods. Education gives specialized knowledge. True, but with reservations. Or that my house is painted by an architect who has learned to create models in 3D-max. But, as you know, the list of such professions is very small. Education teaches you to learn. Work with literature, learn a huge amount of knowledge for a limited amount of time (the night before the exam), negotiate with the teacher when you do not know the subject, etc. All this can be learned outside the university. The university gives useful links. This is yes, the student brotherhood creates a pretty close relationship, which really in the future can help you achieve financial success. Education teaches systemic thinking. Fundamental education gives a picture of phenomena in general, allows us to see the interrelationships between different areas. This gives flexibility. A person who has completed accounting courses can become an accountant, and even a good one. A graduate of a financial institution can become an accountant, an auditor, an analyst, a manager, a financial controller, an underwriter …
