Many people are learning the value of continual learning. Not just to get  work, but to improve many ares of their lives. From how money works, to the stock market to reading books such as How to Win Friends and Influence People.

Some people have amazing wealth of knowledge about sports people and the stats. Imagine using that type of knowledge to find ways to improve the world.

One day standing in a dress shop (as one does) waiting for a friend to choose something she liked i stated a conversation with the only other male in the place. He worked on a mine site driving trucks and had taught himself about Quantum Physics. We had the best conversation.
