You are the Chief Speaker in a debate on the topic: Education is not as important as riches. Write your argument for or against the topic.
Chairman, Panel of Judges, Co-debaters, Ladies and Gentlemen, I am here to speak against the motion which states that education is not as important as riches. Education is a process of acquiring learning and knowledge which equips an individual for the challenges of life. It makes an individual to be adequately fit into the society in which he finds himself. Education as against ignorance, brings out the best in every individual. Riches, on the other hand, has to do with acquiring wealth and opulence which may be difficult to maintain without adequate knowledge.
There is a common saying that if education is expensive, try ignorance. This is true as education has to do with acquiring knowledge with which riches can be adequately administered and controlled. What is riches without education? It is useless and unworthy without education. A rich man without education will definitely discover that something i substantial and great is missing in his life. He feels the yawning gap n his life. He may have the money to throw around but he may fritter away his money if he lacks good education to administer his wealth. He may hire educated people to assist him in the company or business he establishes but the fact is that he lacks the knowledge to adequately control his enormous wealth. He has to depend on educated people around him for the successful administration of his wealth.
Apart from this, an uneducated rich person is already restricted and limited in the society. His experience is not complete if he has not attended any school as there is giving to be a yawning gap between him and those who are educated. He cannot be trusted with positions where education is a Prerequisite. He cannot aspire to become a governor of a state or the president of a country.
Education has the capacity to transform from being ignorant to being informed. Riches, no matter how enormous it is, cannot do this. It is a mind opener as it makes a person not to be narrow-minded. Education is a liberator of the mind in a way that riches deformed mind. Riches can't do this; cannot be. An informed person is already liberated and he cannot have a person to be self-assuming. s, it can only make a person to be arrogant and proud because wealth can make a person self-assuming.
Definitely, education is the most important factor in determining a successful life. Even education is essential in one's life and it could be a pathway to riches. Chairman, Panels of Judges, I hope that with these few points of mine, I have been able to convince you that education is as important as riches.
