Skool vs School
This post is not anti-school. But it will make a case for Skool.
(Yes that's debt in the screenshot, not me flexing! 🤣)
Let me explain.
I've spent over 60% of my life in school.
School til 18, University til 24, Accounting exams for another 18 months. It's been a lot.
That’s a lot of time in classrooms, exams, and textbooks.
And don’t get me wrong—formal education has its value. It laid a foundation for who I am today. It allowed me to become a chartered accountant, quit my job, and move to Bali.
But...
Learning something from a textbook is one thing. Doing it is another.
I spent 5.5 years studying accounting and finance, 1.5 while working full-time.
Guess what?
I learned more in the 1.5 years working and studying than I did in the previous 4.
Why?
Because I was actually doing it...
Doing the thing is much better than studying the thing. That's how you learn.
And that’s where Skool comes in.
I joined Skool a little over three months ago, and the experience has been transformational. Here’s why:
- Skool is filled with people actively doing.
- Communities of like-minded individuals, all working toward similar goals.
- IT DOESN"T COST £9,000 PER YEAR
(Side note: £50k debt sat on my head to become an accountant - not including the £10k exams my company paid for)
The best part?
It’s not just about learning—it’s about growing with others.
We are all heading towards a similar goal. Some people are further ahead, and some people are just getting started.
It's inspiring to see people ahead of you, it lays the path of what is possible.
We are all early.
And $99/ month sounds a lot better than the £50k debt that you get for a formal education in the UK.
The system is broken. Skool is the solution. It opens up doors that never existed before.
The lesson?
You don’t need a classroom to learn. All you need is a laptop, wifi and a desire to be better than yesterday!
