- Degrees are IMPORTANT but degrees alone without the relevant skills in today's hyper-evolving world will make you suffer in Canada, USA, Europe or Africa.
An alarming chunk of 90% of college and university graduates in my country remain jobless for up to 10yrs of leak f school. But Why? A real disconnection between what is taught in school and the actual employable skills needed in the world of work. For better context, read this disturbing research piece below:

I have six earned degrees from elite universities and I approve this message. I don't advise anyone going to college unless someone else pays for it. This man is spot on. Teach your children real skills at an early age. The only millionaire from my high school is a guy who went to work as a janitor at a warehouse and ended up convincing the warehouse owner to pay him as an independent contractor to change paper towels, tissue, hand soap and lightbulbs for the warehouse. He formed an LLC, got the contract and then spread to tons of other warehouses. He has over 500 warehouse across the southeast US today. That's how he made his millions. No college degree. This message is so powerful. All parents should be raising their children on this wisdom.
Thank you so much for adding so much sauce to the thread. If the black generation will dominate the future, we must teach our kids differently. I have purposes to achieve this with my kids and will be putting every thing I do for them and with them out for people to see the amazing results.
When people, look at my 3yr old daughter, you know what they say? "She is smart for her age". What they don't see is the effort of parents behind the scene to set her up right.
Not many teachers paid meagre salaries in in public schools will go that extra mile to invest their best energies and creativities to turn our kid's lives around extraordinarily for us.
Why do you have six degrees?! That is highly ambitious.
Why does someone else have to pay for it? Totally out of touch. I'm paying for my own because I have no one else that will do it. I didn't get a full loan.
@@DrAlexanderHamiltonDumb question. 6 for what?
@@DrAlexanderHamilton not even FUCKING close!!!
I have no college degrees. I am 66 years, one month and 24 days as of my comments. The best degree I have is GOD. God will make ways according to his will and ways. God has given me necessary abilities and resources since I was a child that has lasted throughout my lifetime. God does not fail and sufficiently equips and supplies and overlook and guides.
Look for a better comment.
Amen and amen, and amen again! 🙏🏾
This is not practical
@@bjameskalema I'm all foe trades certification prior to or during college this generation is anti-social and rude lil longer to develope is necessary HBCU
Have you ever heard about Theodicy before? It’s called the problem of evil and suffering.
You believe their is god who is omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent, ever loving but can’t stop evil and suffering in the world?
There are millions of children out there suffering from cancer, malaria, food poverty and different kinds of diseases but this god never fails?
Many countries suffer radical wars, genocide, earthquakes, floods and this god just sits and watch?
Instead of creating societies where humanity and love should thrive, all we do is attribute self gratitude to a sky daddy whom people of faith believe created this crazy world.
You can do better!
Facts. I trained as an Electrician in Germany after my degree. People thought I was mad. Guess who is laughing now. Best decision of my life
I totally understand you and know who is laughing now
@@chorkormillionaire Bro. U know. Spread the word. It's never too late. Thanks for this wonderful video
You're welcome
Ausbildung is great in Germany.
We will always need Electricians. No lies.

As a young lady of 25, this is one more sign for me ! 1 week ago all of the sudden I said to myself I need to learn coding and programming... I enrolled and I start in August... I'm so motivated .. Thank you.
Well done!
Courage dear, am a front-end dev trust me its cool
Yes me too!!
I wish you the best of luck, Thanks.
All the love from Uganda.
Which platform did you enrol in?
Dude, you earned my subscription for the brutal truth about the rot and mess in most African education systems. Here in US, I know some guys who only have a skills certificate in plumbing or welding but each owns at least 4 rental houses while many of us degree holders live pay check to pay check!!
Thank you so much
You're God sent! I have a family situation, and your video is the answer I was looking for. God bless.

Bro you just nailed it. I just got my Cisco Certification and Companies are chasing me for employment even though I'm still in the US Navy , planning to separate. Ive somehow regretted not doing IT programs earlier when I came to US 14 years ago. Now in my late 40s, I'm now doing them. Almost done with Azure Cloud Computing, next will be AWS Architects, CYBERSECURITY etc. We gotta get them money. Never too dead for a resurrection anyways.
Your last sentence is my favourite.bless your hustle
Could you pls share a few links to take the trainings
I am in my late 40 too, can share how u went about starting the IT and where can I start too, thank u so much

Is robotic a good career?
My mother try whatever she can to put me through school, I'm a very brilliant student in all aspect of education, but one thing my mother did that I'm forever grateful is sending me to learn automechanic after high school. I thought she was worrying me considering my gentleness and all that , but when I realized what she was doing and the future of the automotive industry I channeled all my energy and intelligence into that industry. As at now I'm in level 300 in the university of Ghana reading Geography and Philosophy, but I've looked for a shop in my area and I'm still practicing automechanics, and to be frank, I see a future with the auto mechanic more than university regardless of my 3.72 GPA, most of my friends jealous me for the skills I possess.
University only give you exposure and connections, but skills will take you places.
I can survive anywhere regardless.
GOD bless your mama.

@@terryoretayo2627 can you assist me ?
Thank you my brother. My son has been obsessed with learning computer operating systems and
coding since he was 9. He is now turning 11 and his teachers are actually asking me, "what is next for this child? Please don't send him to the middle school he is zoned to". As a foundation, I taught him academically more than the school he attends. I will get him a tutor to continue his technical training this summer. My daughter will be studying nuclear physics to expand into "clean" renewable energy and plays the violin.
Please this coding I really need to understand it. Do I need laptop for this or tablet for them. I have 10, 8 and 6 years.
Huuummm!!...... Gurl!!! 😮😳👌🏽 We Love it.

As a high school biology teacher, I approve this message! Thank you Brother!!!
Blue collar jobs are where the money is. Schools should offer training before children leave high school. Today's society need multiple sources of income.
My 12 year old is doing coding and robotics part time and is enjoying it. By next year he'll have a diploma..... He always said, mummy I want to study anything IT related 🎉
Hi , am from Namibia. refer the references for an online Instructer
That's good. He found his passion.
My advice is to diversify your portfolio; a degree is always helpful (choose an in demand one), get a trade certificate if time permits, start a business, invest (in what seems profitable), save as much as possible, buy assets (real estate etc. ) the list goes on and on but its simple. Just diversify!
Great advice
@@chorkormillionaire Thank you.
@@rackin9594 you're most welcome and thanks for your perspective. It is quite refreshing as well.
What is an example of an in-demand degree?
@@cosmicviewer477Anything in Medicine, Computer Science or Engineering. Trades such as carpentry, electrical or plumbing are also good choices.
Came across this channel,,ow wow!
Thanks for this!
I'm watching these from Texas. I'm a caregiver ( no CNA license yet) but I decided to do a Live - in jobs! Yes I take care of old people, currently taking care of a couple and guess what ,they pay $50 hr! Yes I charge $25 @, and they pay me 24/7! As long as I'm there, I get paid!
I wanted to join nursing, but the moment I found this secret, I dropped it! Maybe later in life,I'll back and do it!! I have been here since 2019 Octer,I'm barely 3 yes,but I'm making $ millions! I'm reach than those nurses who came and they're still chasing those masters degrees, with student loan,,,!! ( in a polite way) I wish people could humble themselves " academically " and FOCUS! I'm putting up nice nice studio, 1&2 bdrms in Kenya! The moment I'm done,( we are doing tiling and each unit has 8 apartments in a floor! I. Gonna make $ 11k every month from.my apartments, and then I will join really estate because so far I have 31 acres of land within Nairobi Kenya! Yes I came to America with $0 in my account! I'm 36!
I left my 2kid with my sister and put them in a private good school boarding. I support then 100% ! I'm not married yet,and that how have been able to manage to do a Live in job! People should wake up,people should stop those stupid fantasies and start working!
Thanks for rhis wonderful videos,I have subscribed and I will be watching!
Thank you.

Such an inspiration, can I get in touch ?
Wow....congrats
Hey! Is there anyway to get in contact with you (instagram, linkedin etc...)? I wanted to start a nursing home in my country in the Caribbean and get some advice to obtaining some practical training in caregiving in the USA. My dad is a US citizen but came back here about 5 years ago. He was a medical doctor in the USA but is retired now. I was thinking of moving to the USA for a couple of months given the demand plus I need some practical hours for my healthcare certificate. My original background is management though - academically and some computer science . I kind of do both on the side.
Hey I am in Texas too, African lady. What company do you do live in work with?
Can't agree with you more, my brother. This is how I've started to think now. Most degrees are useless to our future. For me, I am planning to have my kids not waste time on college degrees but on vocational education that will make them self-sufficient.
I wish you all the best. I am pretty sure once tailor the parenting and training towards their giftings, talents, passions etc, it will all sync well. We just have to be more intentional in raising our kids. Black people can't continue to be the world's factory workers in the global North. We need to up our game and have our kids dominate new fields, become disruptors and sit in high places. And that starts with you and I setting them up real good.
Exactly what's on my mind. These vocational schools makes tremendous effort than stupid qualifications that we are looking for.. more experience and applying that experience from practical things is what we need!
So glad to hear a fellow Ghanaian speak on this!! About time we start raising our children holistically otherwise they will never be free no matter the land they move to. Thank you sir for sharing!
This video is rich , full of wisdom and the best on TH-cam for today and many years to come .This videos deserve 5 million views and more, sharing right away. Well done .
Aww. Thanks so much
You're right 👍
“More degrees than the thermometer itself” 😂😂😂👌🏾💯
😄
Love your mentality bro. I’m from Togo and my people are so backwards, they’re still stuck on that mentality of piling up degrees and most of them not even making much money with all the degrees anyway.
Just turned 56 yesterday and came across this today. Haf signed up to start cyber securitu training in August and this video is my confirmation. After being in the US since 1990 now in 2023 is my brain realizing this!
Your message just gave me goosebumps. When I see my peers or juniors or senior fellow blacks come to the rude awakening of the fierce urgency of NOW, when I see them care less about how much time has passed them or what they haven't achieved yet,
when I see people begin to face and slay the legions of fear inside of them; when I see our people begin to believe in themselves all over again with an unstoppable, child-like gut, when I see our people begin to focus on what positive, growth -driven actions they can take NOW, it feels truly magical.
I recommend you follow Jay Kwashie on Facebook. He is a Ghanaian tech expert based in Canada. He had gone through many countries including Netherlands, UK, and USA before moving over to Canada. He also made a complete switch from a different field he studied at the University of Ghana to go into tech. He will inspire you a lot to pick up a lot more IT certification programs on the side on a low budget.
@@chorkormillionaire Thank you for the speedy response. I have now started following Kwashie for IT.
I have also started trading stock options as a side hassle teaching myself with hefty mistakes. Incase you have leads of options trading groups or affordable training kindly share. Time is not exactly on my side.
Us older immigrants truly admire you younger our people because of the courage yal have. May the Lord forever guide and guard you.
Which company is gonna teach you the IT course please let me join you asap? Am interested in IT courses but no where to learn it.
@@nathanvenn7626 there are many, google has a course and will prepare for the test as well. I plan on doing cybersecurity as well through either google or a other online course.Good luck.

Awww 😦 so kind of a you. Thank you.
Bro I share your convictions...I'm in tech business I've just enrolled back to school learning A.I ..not necessarily for me..but for my 8yr old son. I want to train in him something I understand I'll mentor him into A.I world. God bless you!
Sounds like a great idea.Best of success with your plans
As a teacher I have started teaching my students content creation and trust me they are doing so well

@@d.trobert1499 Thank you
It’s because the trades are absolute vital!!! A barber 💈 & Paul Mitchell are billionaires 😮. Tow truck drivers, Landscapers, Braiders, Mechanics, Plumbers, ect… All these tradesmen were looked down upon as low status. But the whole time those people are quietly making excellent 🤑money! We should focus on computers & trades. Not getting long degrees that leave us in high debt 💸 😢
My first time watching your video and I must say that you are full of knowledge.
John Dewey said centuries ago that “If we teach today’s students as we taught yesterday’s, we rob them of tomorrow.” The school will never teach you the path to financial freedom but you have. Keep it up and God bless you.🙏
I have already taken this decision on my kids and seeing this video makes me realize I’m not the only person having this thoughts. Thank you for this advice and God bless you..
You're most welcome
This is a golden message! The era of acquiring only certificates is gone!!
Glad you liked it
One of the BEST CONTENT I've watch and listened to on TH-cam.Good job.

Pls help share it across all your platforms
Well spoken Chokor. This information is profound and life changing. Im glad ive come across this video.
Thank you for this. I have been thinking so for long
This is life changing... I needed to hear this... Thank you so much!!
Well said.. I stand with you on this!
This is so on point. My musical skills as a teenager and young adult got me (a poor orphan) to the USA. I admire our neighbours as they carry out all sort of works in their home by themselves. You are right, it's a culture here. Almost everyone is good at handy work. I am learning from TH-cam and was so proud to fix our skirting boards myself.
So proud of you for following your skills and passion. Congratulations 🎉
That is great. Keep on pushing!
Saaame! Teaching violin and piano is paying my rent and other bills comfortably. Thus are skills I picked up as a teenager and kept sharpening over the years
This is so powerful, we as Africans must wake up and mould our kids for the future
Thanks for this message, i remember when i was gathering skills, someone said to me, only you, hair maker, only you can do pastry, only you you can sew.. I told the person, you'll hear about me soon..and am still preparing my self for greatness... Thanks @Chokor once again...
Well said bro. You just nailed it! Thanks for spreading the truth. God bless you
Well said sir. Thank you for the info.
My daughter will be two years old in April from 5 months old I exposed her to real piano and guitar because I play myself and also sing as well. Today she has a little bit of sound and beat understanding. Am glad I'm already on the right path with her. More blessings bro

This was 💯% on point!! Yes you keep it up!😊
Good bless you my brother. Am currently learning devops and am grateful for this opportunity to come across your channel..
The man is speaking is the truth. I learned a trade and ill be making 47 to 50$ an hour in 4 years and theres so much overtime in my field that people are litterally making 150k and more easily. Imagine a 24 year old making that much, he will be ready to retire in his mid 40s.

From the informations I have gathered from listening to Chorkor Millionaire I decided to upgrade my IT skills to the next level. I am presently running a professional IT course online. I am an architect but to practice in Canada you must be certified so I decided to brush up my IT skills. And IT skills pay more in Canada than architectural jobs.

There is definitely other benefits of going to school/college other than getting the degree. For example, it is an opportunity to create a different network. It is also true that one does not need to focus on what they studied in school for work… you can study law and work in advertising.
