> But we’re also spending more and more of our lives in education, and that threatens the time in the parts of our lives where we really enjoy being adults. The time I was going to school was probably the best time of my life. Not because of school itself, but because of having a stable group of friends, lots of "events" and things to look forward to... and a lot of support for extra-curricular activities, like sports and hobbies. After you finish school, you can feel like having a pointless life if you don't find something to concentrate on (usually your career - which is in many cases a pointless thing to focus on anyway).
