Is it worth it to go to school? Some people do not even have any academic history and yet they are millionaires. They have travelled the world and been to places and done things that most can only dream about.
They only look at life and go for what they want. So what is the shool for? Is it another way of keeping your life occupied and make the life clock continue ticking? It all seems to be in the name of education. But what is education? Who really came with an idea of time and how did they come to conclude about what makes time or a period? If there is a universal language, why do you need to attend school?
It is very interesting that something you do not see can affect your life so much. Give someone a number, it can either kill or make their lives very exciting. So, is going to school about being able to have control over life? Yes it is true, its good to be able to read and write. What is interesting though is to learn the formula to have control over life especially your own life but they never teach that at school now do they? What role does the community have on this?

The Millionaire's Industry
As I look around, I soon realised life goes on, but what makes it tick? You have people with all kinds of interests and through that they are able to offer their expertise while loving what they do. The amazing thing is some make it big while not doing much and they call it working smart.
You often wonder, how do some people afford to retire early in life and start enjoying their life without winning a lottery. There are all sorts of activities that give you an adrenalin rush. It is amazing to see beauty of life. When you look at it, you only have one life and it is there to be lived. There are so many things that happen in life to make it more interesting and challanging. Take for example sports. So many people like different sports types and it does not mean they will like the same sport. So many get their lives changed for the better because of being so successful in what they do.
When people pay to get the sports entertainment they desire, who makes all the money? How do they really make it. You would expect now with the technology so advanced, certain things should become even cheaper if not free. Well! The thing is, the more in demand the sport is, the higher they will charge. Yet for another similar event, there is a small fee or no charge. Why is this the case? Well I'm sure you need not to be genius to figure some of this out. It all comes down to marketing strategies. You introduce the game at price next to nothing and as it becomes more popular, increase the price. Just the same effect as with the nicotine. Once you are hooked in, it is almost always impossible to stop it. That's where they make more of their money let alone the punters.
It is a millionaire's industry. Hook them in and squeeze their pockets out without them feeling it. It is all in the name of entertainment. Somehow, you get so amazed if some sports have gone crazy. In the game of football for example, players have a price tag on their heads. How do you explain a single player being worth more that the team he plays for? How can you pay one player a weekly salary equivalent to another player's annual salary in the same team. What is worse is that these players are given these long contracts which they end up braking and move on to another team.
