The truth is that it is a slow teacher and cannot take advantage of everything in life on a subject like academic learning from books does. Imagine learning about the Roman Empire, the British Empire and World War II, the problems that led to the collapse of the empire and the world war. This learning deepens the younger leader's knowledge and is able to avoid past mistakes, something that life experience may not offer in such a short time. Additionally, people might urge dropping out of college as Bill Gates, Michael Dell, and Michael Zockeberge made it in life. The truth is that for every successful Bill Gate there are a million failures and these kids have abandoned academic learning after gaining enough knowledge in such a short time. Additionally, people like Henry Ford surrounded themselves with brilliant collage graduates to help them build successful automotive companies. Therefore, all these facts highlight that life experience is never as beneficial as academic experience
