That old cliche is right - the more education you have the more money you make - at least statistically!

This article from The Brock Press in Ontario points to a recent study by StatsCan that says the numbers don't lie - the higher your education, the more money you stand to make.

The article cites details like networking, focused education and more nontraditional details like proof of an ability to keep learning and think independently.

While the article warns recent grads from choosing an occupation based solely on compensation, it does go on to say that earning a higher education creates ample opportunity to not only make a sufficient income but also to explore different career paths.
