Are younger people redefining what success actually means?

If so, what do you think success means to them?

They are way more cynical of higher education, preferring vocational training.

Higher education is pretty much just a way to be in debt.

I have two Master degrees. They're useless. They've not done nothing for me.

Education is generally very useful, but some degrees might not translate to jobs, depending on various factors we can control or not control.

Well, what I mean is that time is not wasted learning things whether a job is there at the end of or not. That's my opinion.
