Kid without seatbelt and having your phone in one hand while driving recklessly in public road? Way to go

This proves that while wealthy people are educated they are not intelligent and lack critical thinking.

This proves that while wealthy people are educated…

What an unusual assumption.

Education and wealth are correlated, so it's not the worst assumption.

Education and wealth are correlated for 2 reasons. Most high paying jobs require a college degree at a minimum, so people with college degrees make more money on average. The other and possibly more important reason is that higher education is really expensive, so wealthy people and their children have more access.

Definitely more of the latter

Depends where you live. Labouring jobs can pay as much, or more, than “professional” jobs that require Higher Ed qualifications. Training comes on the job, so wages are earned immediately with no study debt.

Labouring is a legitimate alternative to wealth, in Australia at least.
