As a student interested not in just getting rich quick, how can one really learn how to invest their money wisely?

Too often we hear that education systems don't prepare us for real life, but I think they are trying to improve this. But what are some great resources to learn about money management and wealth as a student?

What is the verdict on Online Learning Courses and accreditation?

I am studying in university, but I have often taken supplementary online courses on sites like Udemy and FutureLearn. How do recruiters look at these certifications - are they impressed or are they just overlooked?

Do you need to go to college to learn Computer Science....college vs. THE INTERNET ?!

Studying at college is a pricey affair in comparison with the Internet which offers vast amounts of information and free college courses that teach you the same thing, if not more. So why college ? #college #computer-science #finance #online-learning #mooc #the-internet
