“If you think education is expensive, try ignorance” Derek Bok.

The time I read this passage I keep on wandering on how ignorance will be more expensive than education. Education, in all we know, doesn’t only talk about learning rather the money involved on it. The daily expenses for our transportation, the daily allowance that we have to budget, the quarterly project that we have to create, and the school supplies that we have to buy are just few of the many things we have to consider when we want to be educated.

Thinking about these things would really make us think how expensive education could be. On the other hand, try to think about quitting school. Indeed, there will be no expenses for school matters but try to think about the future. No school, no job. No job, no pay. No pay, no financial support for the family. In short, no school you are nothing.

At present, we may think that education is very expensive that some of us cannot acquire schooling. However, this expensive matter would be our ultimate weapon to face our future- to reach our dreams. It’s quite true that what is expensive has a good quality just like in education. It may be expensive but its quality last.
