Wadhwa makes an interesting point about the future value of current partying. What comes after "tertiary?"

Wadhwa is confusing education in general, and the current education system in the US. Education is of course good, provided that the students can truly learn. But I doubt if they can under the current system.

Btw, I kind of feel that Morley Safer is a little bit biased or at least skeptical of Thiel's idea.

Anyone who is good in identifying talent/idea and nurturing it would be successful ! It is the resources that is available for each feat, that makes all the difference ! Education is an essence though, when used in right proportion increases probability of success!
