    I'll start off with a Third level degree, those with degrees tend to have higher social status then without.

    I dunno all about that. All the comic book villains have degrees. Well lots of them are called doctor anyway lol bankers who end up costing our country billions have degrees and they are quite frankly the scum of the earth. Lol

    Social status is not really desirable much any more. Money and fame are but social status not so much

    Generally speaking Money X Education X Time = Social status. Of those variables money is by far the most important.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Having furniture that has been in the family for generations. Things that show up on the antiques roadshow you just call "stuff".
