Money is the root of all evil
Nowadays, students work part time while studying… What is the reason for this? Why is money so important that they sometimes have to sacrifice their sleep, energy and even classes just to go to work? If you work for longer hours, it is more detrimental towards your studies. Working students usually feel that their studies suffered as a result of their employment. Producing poor assignments, not having enough time to study for tests, falling asleep during class hours, missing out social events etc. So why? Why do students put their studies and future in jeopardy…..?
Why do students need the money?
- To buy clothes, handphones, shoes, accessories, birthday presents
- to go out with friends to movies, clubbing, dinner
- to pay off debts, loans etc
- to be independent
I have friends who work and planning to go out with them takes alot of effort due to their work schedules. Managing work and education is not easy. But, working while studying does give some benefits.
Working part-time can be a fulfilling experience for students who are ready to take on additional commitments and responsibilities as well as enjoying the rewards of money. Students should always assess the studying workloads to ensure that their job does not interfere with their studying life.
In Singapore, education and money plays a huge role in everyone’s life. That is why students are working towards that so that have a fruitful and prosperous future ahead of them.
So what do you think? Should students work while studying? OR finish studying, then work? I cant decide.. Can you…?
