'Advantage Becker!' ..... That announcement
opened my eyes!
He did nothing... just stood there...
The opponent failed at something.... and the umpire shouted thus!
Wonderful! Somebody slogs, somebody
fails, advantage to us! That explains why those 'morals' do not find
much application in 'real life' now-a-days! Honesty, hard work, and
such concepts find practical use only for scoring marks in exams
during 'good-essay-writing'!
...
But Education versus Experience?
Advantage 'Becker'?
That was the question, I found to be
interesting one!
Quote:
What in your opinion does give a
person the advantage in life - education or experience?
Some people believe that education
leads to greater opportunity in life, while others believe that
experience is the best teacher. What do you think gives the person
the advantage it life and why?
My (dis)advantage:
Depends upon where we are
located...
Head hunters go by name tags.... certificates make a living possible... The only hurdle is that interview... somehow manage it, and then it is their problem to prove that they hired the 'right kind of guy'... by the time they are inclined to agree to the truth, it is our retirement time, with pension!...
...
On the other hand, if we are air-dropped on an island, uninhabited but hospitable to human life, pure experience (no degrees work here)... antenna open, alert mind, aware-being... response-able-to-life... works so well.... that divinity would bless us!

(Maybe that is why, what works in
'material life' often works against spiritual growth!.... The
ancients were a bit rigid about ritualistic living..... they
believed in equal opportunity to both... a householder, as well as
that nomadic mendicant.... the rules had to be in conformity with
laws which do not give any tennis-like-advantage!)
To some extent, we like to become as
indifferent as those umpires....
We disrespect brains.... they(our
brains) migrate .... 'Advantage-America' (brain-drain)..
We (the hundreds of countries trading
mutually......) disrespect our currency .... deal only in
dollars.... advantage USA/USD $...!!!
