As a System Network Engineer Senior Trainer in one of the leading
Information Technology training institutes in Nigeria, sometimes my students
will ask me
“WHAT IS THE BEST PATH TO MAKE MONEY IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY”
I
will smile and say
“SEEK KNOWLEDGE FIRST”
I will not want to mention names but with a little search on the internet, you
will find a lot of people who are billionaires today as a result of knowledge.
Knowledge will continue to give you money for a lifetime. Knowledge is power.
If you have it, hold it tight because if properly channeled, it will make you
rich.
As the world is evolving in all aspects (Technology,
Medical, Climate, etc.) so will challenges arise in these areas? The ability
for anyone to know how to solve those challenges is a gateway to money-making.
So if you are choosing a career in any field, try and have enough knowledge on
that career path because if you are good in that field, definitely money will
come. People will definitely need your service which will then make you smile
at the banks. Look around the world, your country, your state, and your locality
there are challenges in looking for solutions. Find answers to these challenges
and money will find you and follow you.
However, I would like to emphasize here, that the knowledge I
will suggest here is the skill to solve problems and this can be either soft or
hard skills. A good example in the job market is that those who have additional
skills apart from their course of study in the university tend to be more
employable than those who do not. Some people did not attend or
complete higher education but are very good in their career path and they are
celebrated today. There are other things you have to combine to really make
good money, nonetheless, Knowledge stands out.
Therefore, I will say to you who are reading this and want to
make money,
“don’t follow money seek knowledge and money will follow you”
I hope you will find this useful. Your comments will be highly
appreciated.
