When does it stop being worth it to keep on just learning, I mean there is a point when you're x years old and you're not giving anything back to society in terms of either economical profit or academia, on the other hand there are the gifted individuals who reach the needed minimum to start producing so much earlier, they are considered more efficient, so let's say you're x years old and never worked in your life still living with your parents, what is the limit in which older than that age you'll never give back what's being invested in you, not only are you living a life not worth living past that point you're probably working so hard to cover for your lack of skill, making yourself very depressed in the process, what is it with the youth today when asked what do they do for a living they respond with: studdying, as if it's now considered a job. I'm also young, in my twenties and still studying but I hate that, I can't wait to find a job in my field of study, even though I have worked in multiple jobs to finance my self. The other day I saw a kid in class he was so young, it just hit me, most of these guys that are with me are just wasting their time, do you think this pattern will continue to exist or are people going to just stop going to college and getting internships directly in their desired feild of study and work their way up if they can. Even though it's very unlikely in so many jobs, especially when lives are on stake. Do you think it's actually going to even increase meaning more people will be going to college, and getting jobs later in life, staying at this rate is very unlikely and it was only going one way, maybe all of this is the natural direction in which society is supposed to evolve, and in the end people will just have UBIs and spend their whole lives jerking off their brains giving back absolutely nothing in return.
