The following observations might be limited to developing nations only.
I noticed that a university degree hardly change people's lives for the better. This is what i'm saying, 80 percent of graduates usually have to fall back on skills / people they've had before university to actually make an advancement in life.

This is not a post to bash Education. My focus is on relationships.

Find your tribe. Fight sweat and blood to keep that tribe for 5, 10, 20 years.
this differs from what you say here about relationships before university.
