School is only incidentally about education. For instance, never underestimate the power of networking at a elite private school.

A few random stories, all true:

A client of mine is global <role_deleted_to_protect_anonymity> director of a multi-billion dollar Scandinavian corporation largely because a school friend knew a few board members.

Another friend was contacted by a school friend and helped him to land a job in an elite investment bank despite the lack of any relevant experience.
