It's quite possible that education is a complete waste of time. That was my conclusion, having tangled with a coffee machine in Switzerland recently. I had escaped, courtesy of a very cheap ticket, to the Alps to redo the cashflow forecasts for my business in preparation for a visit to the (still solvent) bank. A generous friend lent me his beautiful chalet, complete with Sky TV (which enabled me to listen to Radio 4), an 18m swimming pool and a coffee machine.
很有可能教育完全是在浪費(fèi)時間。這是我最近在瑞士被一臺咖啡機(jī)徹底打敗后得出的結(jié)論。承蒙一張超級便宜的機(jī)票,我躲進(jìn)了阿爾卑斯山,為我的企業(yè)重做現(xiàn)金流預(yù)測,準(zhǔn)備拜訪(仍然資不抵債的)銀行。一位慷慨的朋友將他美麗的度假小屋借給了我,另外還有英國天空電視臺收視許可(使我能夠收聽Radio 4節(jié)目),一個18米長的游泳池和一臺咖啡機(jī)。
