RE: I Need Some Idea's ~ Win upto 128 Steem

in #community6 years ago (edited)

Hello @erodedthoughts, I want to thank you for this kind-hearted initiative. My name is Miguel Vargas and i want to share with you a part of my life. This is my story: https://steemit.com/life/@miguelvargas/i-m-miguel-vargas-and-this-is-my-story.

In that publication I put all my heart. I talked about my life as a musician, as a university student, my love life, the desire to build a family and my efforts to give back to this blockchain everything that has given me. I may have exceeded characters, I hope not to bore you with so many details. However, I thank you in advance for all your time to read me. A hug brother.

i'm here a little bit late, hope get the chance to read me.

That was one hell of a story you submitted.

I did want to ask because it sits in the back of my mind, how do you pay for university?

hey buddy, I know you didn't ask me, but here in Venezuela despite the difficult situation, we have some public universities, which are not fully functioning due to the economic and social crisis.

edit: I'm a musician too, and there is a chance here to get a good education in that profession, the core problem is that because of our crisis there are a lot of good teachers/musicians immigrating or leaving their jobs at the university because they earn more money by working freelance, not to mention all the other factors affecting the employees of these universities, infrastructure, insecurity, crime, etc.

You may have a lot of questions about our situation here because there is a lot of information out there, both true and false, but I can assure you that everything that @miguelvargas says to you is reliable.

University is a college, correct?

that's correct

That's awesome, I did not know that there were free colleges in the world. That offers a lot of potential improvement for people who would otherwise not be able to attend due to cost.

Man, higher education in Venezuela is been free since 1864, there are some private colleges but they are meant for the lazy and rich so they can buy they way into dad's company.

@joedukeg explained it very well @erodedthoughts.

We are proud here of the music level. We export high quality musicians to the best orchestras in the world. That was possible thanks to the System of Orchestras, a foundation that founded orchestras throughout the country and hired many foreign musicians to form them. Unfortunately, at this time there is no money to keep all the infrastructure, things fall apart, teachers give up and there are only those who with much love and support from their families who send money, can spend their time to train students that still remain.

Luckily, that university education is completely free and, despite all the difficulty of attending classes, I am very grateful to all the professors. Would you believe me if I told you that a teacher's salary equals approximately $ 1 a month? Well, they with that small income (which by the way is paid late) strive to teach us what they know.
