Love him or hate him, he sure hits the nail on the head with this! To
anyone with kids of any age, here's some advice. This was sent to me by a
teacher friend:


Bill Gates recently gave a speech at a High School about 11 things they did
not and will not learn in school.

He talks about how feel-good, politically correct teachings created a
generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them
up for failure in the real world.

Rule 1: Life is not fair - get used to it!

Rule 2: The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect
you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You
won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

This doesn't sound anything like Bill Gates. Are you sure about this?

Harry, I am sure it was sent to me by a friend, as I stated. It's
humor...you know what I mean? For all I know, it could be something my
mother said to one of my brothers.

Jeeesh!
