Hard Times for Education

In times of recession, like the one we are facing now, people think twice before spending their money. For young people without a degree, there isn't much of a choice. They have to enroll in college or university and pay exorbitant fees on tuition. According to a recent article, http://finance.yahoo.com/college-education/article/109081/in-hard-times-lured-into-trade-school-and-debt, young people never get their money's worth despite the promises made to them about landing a prosperous job. Then again, these young people have to have a degree, so they are out of alternatives.

For professionals seeking to improve their skills in areas outside their main line of work, going back to university and seeing your bank account dwindle is not an option. So many other responsibilities lie ahead, and the last thing we need is another hole in our wallet. That is why a group of business people from around the world hone their skills by sharing ideas about the latest books they have read. Topics cover almost any aspect of interest: social, technical, spiritual, you name it. The basic principle is that you educate yourself by setting aside some time for reading. Over time, you will have built enough knowledge to understand the world of business with the help of the PersonalMBA without incurring debts. The PMBA was created in 2005 by Josh Kaufman, a self-educated author, coach, entrepreneur, and business consultant.
