On a certain platform, a netizen asked: Why do some people think that studying and education are not important?
My answer is: This world is colorful, with people of different personalities, and everyone has various ideas, so some people think that studying and education are not important, which is normal. But the truth is that education is generally related to income.
Among my classmates and old colleagues, there are doctoral and master's degrees, and among my authors, there are also some university professors or economists. After in-depth exchanges, my overall feeling is that in the eyes of people with high education, they believe that studying and education are important, and their income is much higher than that of ordinary people.
In the eyes of low-education groups, because of limited cognition, most of the groups they come into contact with are similar. Once a few of them have a low income, higher than the so-called college students and master's students, they feel that studying and academic qualifications are not important. In fact, this kind of cognition is biased. What they see is not the whole thing.
I have seen a set of public data before. From the comparison of job salary and academic qualifications of Chinese college graduates from 2019-2021, it can be seen that the salary and benefits of graduates are positively correlated with academic level. Simply put, the higher the academic qualification, the higher the salary.
For example, the salary of doctoral graduates in 2021 has reached 21,269 yuan, with the highest salary and the most significant increase; the salary of master graduates in 2021 is 12,113 yuan; the salary of undergraduate graduates in recent years has also continued to rise, reaching 8,064 yuan. What about junior and high school graduates? There is no statistical data, so it is hard to talk nonsense, but in the current employment market, the recruitment threshold for many units is basically starting from undergraduate studies, and the career choices of junior and senior high school students are relatively limited, so you can imagine the income.

Of course, a person's success or income level and social status are related to many factors. It does not mean that a high education must be equal to a high income. If you want to find a case where a doctoral income is lower than that of a junior high school student, it is not difficult. After all, in addition to academic qualifications, there are also factors such as connections and emotional intelligence that will affect a person's social status and ability to make money, but from the overall situation, reading and academic qualifications are definitely very important. If conditions permit, try to improve these two aspects as much as possible. Never regard individual cases as a common phenomenon!
It is necessary to remind you that as the social economy enters the stage of high-quality development, all walks of life need high-level professional talents to increase. In the future, when robots replace artificial intelligence on a large scale, and the arrival of the era of artificial intelligence, groups with low knowledge and low education do not mean that they have no future in development, but that their living space will be greatly compressed, and there are fewer and fewer channels for making money! If you don’t believe it, 10 years later, everyone will wait and see!
