Do you know what the primary purpose of education is?

Education actually is an investment. When you go to school, college, and university, you are actually investing in yourself to build knowledge, skills, and expertise. Once you are out of the university, your investment will start giving you dividends in the form of a job or employment.

You might have not been able to get good education due to various circumstances. You can still enroll in a course. When it comes to learning something, age is not the limit. Recently, the world’s oldest blogger died at the age of 101, she learned blogging at the age of 90 and was an active blogger until she died.

The first stage: Invest time and money to learn something that will generate high income in the future.

The second stage: Use your knowledge and skills to build an income, if possible learn another skill to increase your income

The third stage: Invest your income to make more money
 
Investing for financial freedom doesn't have to be complicated or expensive. In fact, you can start investing with very little money. The key is to invest in a way that gives you the freedom to live the life you want.

Here are a few tips to get started:

Start with your emergency fund: Investing for financial freedom starts with having a cushion of money to cover unexpected expenses. If you don't have an emergency fund, start by setting aside a few hundred dollars.

Create a budget: Once you have an emergency fund, you can start thinking about how to invest your money. The first step is to create a budget so you can see where your money is going.

Set goals: What do you want your money to do for you? Do you want to retire early? Buy a house? Save for your kids' college education? Once you know your goals, you can start planning how to reach them.

Choose the right investments: There are many different investments you can choose from, but not all of them will be right for you. It's important to do your research and find investments that fit your goals and risk tolerance.

Start small: You don't have to go all-in on investing to reach your financial goals. In fact, it's often best to start small and gradually increase your investment over time.

Investing for financial freedom doesn't have to be difficult. By following these simple tips, you can get started on the path to reaching your financial goals.

I agree with everything the OP is saying on this thread. The first investment you need to make is in your education and training, so that you can build knowledge, skills, and expertise. If you have rich parents who can send you to the best school and college, you are extremely lucky, however, even if your parents cannot pay for your education, you should not take excuse for not being able to study because of lack of money. There are a lot of ways to get a degree, you can try online college or open universities (are cheaper than regular colleges and universities). If that is also not available you can take short term courses based on your interest and income opportunities. If you invest in education, you are actually investing in yourself, when you are investing in yourself, you will get return on your investment in the form of employment. When you begin to earn, you can think about more investment opportunities.
