<p>“School na scam.”</p><p>You’ve heard it... maybe you’ve even said it with pride, after writing a 3-hour exam that looked like a battle between your brain and the devil’s handwriting. </p><p><br/></p><p>Or after seeing one guy wey no even finish secondary school now driving Benz while you dey queue for photocopy under sun.</p><p><br/></p><p>Let’s be honest, school can frustrate person.</p><p>You spend four, sometimes six years learning what feels like ancient grammar and irrelevant theories. </p><p><br/></p><p>You cram definitions that vanish from your head the moment you drop your pen. Then you come out, certificate in hand, only to be greeted by “No experience, no job.”</p><p><br/></p><p>At that point, “School na scam” sounds like the most reasonable quote of the century.</p><p><br/></p><p>But hold on small o..🤔</p><p>Before you cancel school like a bad date, let’s look at the bigger picture.</p><p><br/></p><p>That guy driving Benz? He might be doing legit business… or maybe he’s just spending fast money that fades faster than hot puff-puff.</p><p><br/></p><p>However, you see that thing school gives knowledge, exposure, ability to reason, write, communicate, and navigate the world</p><p><br/></p><p> e no dey show for face, but it lasts longer than quick success.</p><p><br/></p><p>School might not make you rich instantly, but it builds something deeper... understanding.</p><p>The same education people call scam is what helps you read, write, argue, plan, and even know that “na scam” is bad in the first place.</p><p><br/></p><p>It’s what helps you question things, think smart, and see beyond the surface.</p><p><br/></p><p>Let’s face it, some of the richest and wisest people in the world didn’t just rely on school; they built on it.</p><p><br/></p><p>Because school is not supposed to hand you success on a platter, it’s supposed to give you the tools to create your own.</p><p><br/></p><p>So maybe the problem isn’t school.</p><p>Maybe it’s the system.</p><p>Maybe it’s how we were taught to see school as the final destination, instead of a foundation.</p><p><br/></p><p>Think about it, the same school that teaches you how to read and think, is the same thing that allows you to say “school na scam” confidently online.</p><p>Irony wey dey sweet. 😅</p><p><br/></p><p>School might not guarantee wealth, but ignorance guarantees failure.</p><p><br/></p><p>And in a world where knowledge rules everything, from business to tech to even street hustle.. education, in whatever form, still wins.</p><p><br/></p><p>So next time you hear “school na scam,” just smile, because the real scam is believing that ignorance will pay better than wisdom.</p><p><br/></p><p>You still dey reason say school na scam so? 😜</p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><a class="tc-blue" href="https://twocents.space/insights/tag/big">#BIG</a> DEE</p><p><a class="tc-blue" href="https://twocents.space/insights/tag/schoolnobescam">#SchoolNoBeScam</a></p>
At the end of the month, we give out prizes in 3 categories: Best Content, Top Engagers and
Most Engaged Content.
Best Content
We give out cash prizes to 7 people with the best insights in the past month. The 7 winners are picked
by an in-house selection process.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Top Engagers
For the Top Engagers Track, we award the top 3 people who engage the most with other user's content via
comments.
The winners are picked using the "Monthly Engagers" tab on the rankings page.
Most Engaged Content
The Most Engaged Content recognizes users whose content received the most engagement during the month.
We pick the top 3.
The winners are picked using the "Monthly Contributors" tab on the rankings page.
Here are a few other things to know for the Best Content track
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
Contributor Rankings
The Contributor Rankings shows the Top 20 Contributors on TwoCents a monthly and all-time basis.
The all-time ranking is based on the Contributor Score, which is a measure of all the engagement and exposure a contributor's content receives.
The monthly score sums the score on all your insights in the past 30 days. The monthly and all-time scores are calcuated DIFFERENTLY.
This page also shows the top engagers on TwoCents — these are community members that have engaged the most with other user's content.
