　　Some people think that the best way to be successful in life is to get a university education. Others disagree and say that nowadays, this is no longer true. Discuss both views and give your own opinions.

　　Everyone wants to have a successful life, which likely includes a decent well-paid job, of which most people believe a university education is a precursor. However, whether university education is an essential element that makes our dreams come true is a controversial issue.

Some people believe that university education is a key to access the door of a prosperous life. A university education not only imparts knowledge but also develops abilities in numerous aspects, such as sociability, independent thinking, self-discipline and so forth. This essential point signifies that a university education not only helps individuals to achieve considerable progress in academic research but also hones qualities that will help them to become talented and contributory members of society when they graduate from university and enter the workforce. On the other hand, along with the rapid development of society, a university education is necessary if people want to find suitable jobs. It is for this reason that a great number of people want to enroll in university to further their education. If an individual doesn’t go university, then they will not achieve success or have a successful life, which may not necessarily be true.

On the contrary, the view that a university education is not an essential condition to have a successful life offers a multitude of examples of college dropouts or those who did not go to university that found a path that was very lucrative. Some of these examples proved to be even greater than many people who studied in university. For instance, Bill Gates did not complete his university education. Rather, he decided to create multinational powerhouse Microsoft. Another example is Li Ka-shing, who is a very successful real estate businessman in Hong Kong who only has a primary level of education. Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook, Larry Ellison of Oracle and Michael Dell of Dell Technologies are all multi-billionaires who failed to earn a college degree.

In conclusion, we cannot definitively say that a university education is the only way to guarantee a successful life, but it is fair to mention that it actually helps most people to become successful. As long as individuals have talents and prepare well, once an opportunity arrives and they are able to seize it, then they will become successful and have a wonderful life.
