It is never too late to go back to school but it is always too expensive.
After completing my secondary school education, I ended up pursuing a career as an accountant. I chose this path mainly due to the cost of post-secondary education. In my fear of failure and being saddled with a decade long amount of debt , I ended up choosing something that I was good at as opposed to something I would have truly enjoyed doing everyday for the rest of my life. If the cost of education was not an issue I would probably have pursued a career as a genetic engineer.
That is where the idea of creating the EducationalTrustFund (ETF) token came from. I've recently become a father and so I want my son to be able to go to school for anything that he is passionate about, when he's ready.
I believe we, as a global community, can offer the whole world free education through this token!
Don't think of it as a money making opportunity. Think of it as a humanitarian act. We are trying to offer free global education and through that process you will reward yourself.
I am just the spark!
If nothing else, I will be able to put my son through college 18, 19 or 20 years from now. That is the minimum goal of this token.
The plan is simple. Save every month or twice a month. The same money that I would put into a savings account, with minimal interest gains, will be going into this token. When he is of age and begins to work, a part of that income will also go into this token for his post-secondary tuition. When he is ready, he will be able to pay for his education using the funds from this token as well as his children, their children, and their children.
What makes this work?
High liquidity tax.
Our money is what is making this project work. If you are buying, it will benefit the cause. If you are selling, it will benefit the cause.
There will always be people who are in it just for the money. There will also be those who are in it for the cause but when they see the money, they sell. So there will be ups and downs but if we all stand firm, your children will be able to go to school, debt free, when they are ready.
You will be able to go to school!
It is never too late to go back to school as long as it isn't too expensive!
If this token becomes as successful as I imagine it becoming, then I too will be able to pursue my dream of becoming a genetic engineer! We all, will be able to pursue our educational dreams without the burden of debt!
The beauty of this project is that it does not require an astronomical amount of funds being dumped into it, it only requires a little bit of funds being deposited from each and every single person that has a desire to pursue a higher education.
Not only can you afford to pay for your children's education but eventually those of us in our 30's, 40's and 50's will also be able to afford the pursuit of the education we've always dreamed of.
There will also be a Project Development Fund wallet which will be used to pay for the education of those who just cannot afford it, once the price of this token reaches an appropriate price point.
As this will be a community funded token, the holders will eventually have a say on how this project is developed.
