Thank u!
This is what many people dont know
Harvard drop is equivalent or if not more than a professor in nigeria
Their environment is educating & these guys understands the true definition of formal & informal education.

After,you would boast about being a graduate but your assertion reeks of pure ignorance and defeats whatever you are arguing against. Where did you get the information that a dropout from Harvard is equivalent to a professor in Nigeria? Are you talking based on what you think? Do you have verifiable facts to back up this your claims? Havard no doubt, is a prestigious university. However,it's embarrassing to hear a so called graduate equate a dropout from Havard,with a professor in Nigeria. It actually makes mockery of the graduate that you are,and puts you on the same pedestal with the uneducated guys/dropouts that you are campaigning against. The standard of education in Nigeria is poor and I understand that. That being said,it's still not enough to equate an average Havard drop out with a Nigerian professor. There are probably other dropouts from Havard who never made it and of course,no one gets to talk about them. There are lots of harvard graduates who aren't popular but might just be doing just fine,averagely.

Your sense of reasoning seems to amaze me, you lack exposure and your mindset and understanding are greatly impinged by the messed up country you live in. Do you know how much you get paid for an hour work minimum without a degree in Sweden? $13, how about with a degree? $13. How about a technical education of the required field you work in? $15, $17,$18,$20, how about with years of experience and technical education? $100k per annum. Your country is messed up, out there no one cares about your degree, as long as you know how to do the job, that makes you qualified. Nigeria is messed up and incredibly corrupt, the reason why a lawyer can be the minister of power and housing. There is a huge difference between being educated and owning a degree, you simply have a flawed mindset of what a dropout should look like. I have a friend who dropped out of a uni in Nigeria because he is too intelligent to be schooled by Nigeria's applauding educational system. He went to a technical school for an IT course in the U.S.A and landed a job with a tech startup in bay area California (Silicon Valley), today he earns about $100k per annum. Of course, if he returns to Nigeria, he will be tagged an illiterate, why? over a worthless piece of paper that can be bought in Nigeria (literally), but in a developed country he's regarded a man of intellect. Back then in school I once had a heating argument with the most intelligent boys in my class, over an incredibly stupid statement. "Airplanes fly with black magic and demons make them fly", believe it or not, there are idiots like this with a first class in Nigeria, graduates who think javascript codes are spells or mathematics, graduates who think it's right for a military man to slap you for answering a phone call at a military checkpoint. You need a man who values education, but a degree? I'm not sure you know the difference.

interesting epistle, i like the word you used here. EDUCATED and all your illustration are mainly abroad not Nigeria. I dont have a flawed mindset, i am simply learning everyday. we can dbate on this issue till eternity, it wont change the face that every man needs to gather knowledge in order to make it in life and business it takes personal responsibility to get it

I've been thinking about how our present girls are selective grin and I came up with this.
Can you as a girl marry a guy that has only an SSCE certificate? (stopped at SS3)


That's why you will see Some ladies nowadays,
Praying daily for God to Give them Husband, any Husband Just to crown her Efforts,
Most of them were guilty of been Selective.
They most have thrown away their future husband by Selective Game.
Ladies should please wise up,
It's Not By Degree,
But by Grace .

FYI, do your research properly. Mark dropped out of Havard University, he had a dream bigger than the degree and most of the rich guys you made reference to are not dumbasses. Steve Jobs dropped out of Reed College in Portland. These are exceptionally smart chaps, so you don't put them on the same pedestal with ordinary peeps without a degree.
crixuss:


There are lots of people without university degrees that are smarter and more informed than majority of people with degrees. I mean no disrespect but there are people even here in Nigeria without degrees whose level of thinking are way above yours. And deciding to judge someone's intelligence or way of thinking based on the ownership of a degree is quite naive. Mark Zuckerburg doesn't own a degree. Steve Jobs didn't own a degree. Lot of the brilliant tech guys working in silicon valley don't have degrees. In fact 35% of the world's billionaires don't have a degree. Degrees are really over rated and given the present financial climate and market dynamics of today's society, I wouldn't classify anyone who decides not to have a degree as unwise.

Don't mind all these nairaland fucckboys that think they have an opinion, so because am a woman I should marry any dick or harry, I shouldn't have any choice for man that comes my way all because I want to marry.

That's pathetic.
Re: Ladies, Can You Get Married To A Non Degree Holder? by Smileytohbadt01: 6:54am On Oct 26, 2017
As for me, the guy must be Educated if you want to marry my sister, now this is where all of you get it wrong, if you go to school for the purpose of Job then dont go at all coz, you can still get a job without University education instead of wasting 4 years and resources at the university, u can start making money by going fr job instead of education....But if you value education and want to make your life easier then i suggest u go to school coz ur mentality and the way you think will be different compare to someone that didnt go, but it might not be that certificate that will get you a job at the end of the day maybe your university exposure..So my simple Analogy is that dont go to school because you want to get Job instead you might regret....Go to school coz you want to be enlightened and want to make your life easy for you and people around you.

I guess you are taking this in isolation.

Would you marry Dangote if he comes as a bachelor?

Peachess:
No, fucking way, I can't do that. You don't expect me to go through the stress of getting a degree, then settling with someone lesser than I am. The truth is, there's always going to be jealousy and so many annoying shit like that. I want someone that reasons better than me, that I can have a reasonable conversation with. Most educated people can't even have a reasonable conversation not to talk of a school dropout.

Na their way. Some ladies with diverse opinion will intentionally avoid a thread, because they can never allow one 'f' speak her mind in peace grin grin. It's either you say what they want to hear, or you're silly,naive & ignorant. The ultimate threat is... you would remain in your father's house till you are 40 tongue embarassed

Don't have a choice, you are a woman, women marry anything for money, but don't dare have issues in the marriage. They'll be waiting to tell you how you were desperate. Just marry first sha cheesy

Lol. Who told you Mark Zuckerburg doesn't have a degree? In as much as education is important, it doesn't determine one's success in life. But in reality, you need education sort of to survive out there. I am not talking about Nigeria. Because it is easy to steal and be rich in this country.

And you simply concluded it's over a degree or "no university exposure"
A happy marriage can never be profounded on education but individual deferences, that determines your compatibility scale with your partner. You completely forgot Nigeria is a very religious county. I'm an atheist and totally believe in no religion, what do you think will happen if I marry a religious woman who thinks she can change me? (they always believe they can). There are many factors to consider that could ignite a bad mix in marriage:
Sex drive
Tolerance
Temperament
Religion
Personality
Ideology
Length of Acquaintance
Age
Attitudes
Common Interests
Communication
Roles
Children
Reasons for Marriage

There are tons of factors to consider, some can totally break up a marriage example a childless or sex-starved marriage, consider that before concluding it's over a degree!
U said the same I'm saying.
The marriage of my sister is hell because of their different views. My sister's views due to her education are civil. Her husband's are more barbaric.

You're only partially right, i can stand any graduate any day, am that learned without a degree.

Your sister married an illiterate probably, there are illiterates and there are literates without a degree. There need to be a time where we draw the line btw the word illiterate because many degree holders are too while non degree holders like me can be considered literate. Pple only ask me where i schooled not thinking i don't own a degree. Yea

In a world where information is wildely accessible now.
I agree with u. My grandma never went to sch but she was certainly educated.

My sister married an illiterate. Not illiterate as in inability to read and write but in the sense that he views are barbaric.

Having a degree is important but using it as a deciding factor for choosing a man doesn't sound right.
Re: Ladies, Can You Get Married To A Non Degree Holder? by Peachess(f): 7:17am On Oct 26, 2017
YelloweWest:

My dear I agree completely with u.
Marriage is not all about money and success. You want to marry a person whom u share common ground with and reason alike.
An educated woman with a non educated man is a bad mix!
1. His ego: everything she says will be met with "because I no go school abi" no matter her purest of intentions.
2: no amount of money can give a person the experience and exposure from the four walls of a university.

My sister with a masters degree married an oil worker with no university exposure.... that marriage is just hell to say the least!
There sense of reasoning is on two completely different levels.
God thank you for this comment, you need to see the way I've been insulted just for stating my preference. I'm trying explain all these things you've said but they choose to call me names. I don't blame them tho, they're just pained.

You are not making any sense, I'm sapiosexual and I can only marry intelligent person.

For your info, I don't do cram and pour, you can't do that in my course, you will fail woefully.
If you are truly sapiosexual, you would know that being intelligent isnt a degree thing. Besides, intelligence is relative. You might be intelligent in ur field for example; banking. But you can be dumb when it comes to music and sounds.
Re: Ladies, Can You Get Married To A Non Degree Holder? by Ezi39: 7:20am On Oct 26, 2017
One problem with marriage of this kind is the difficulty the girl will face in making the husband's people believe that she's not the one in control. The husband's people always believe that their son's power is illusory because those who have degree are said to be knowledgeable.
I have a friend that married a HND holder, and she is facing the problem I stated above. So it's for the girl's good to go for someone that is at par with her in education, when it comes to marriage.
I kept hearing from my friend's family members that the girl inveigled him into marrying her so she would be the one in control.
