Lead Report Abuse
I figured Id throw this in since it's used in thousands of applications from bullets, shields, shots, weight and others and considered one of if not the oldest metals in history it's discovery led to more innovations that we still use thousands of years later.

Think about it without school you wouldn't have the knowledge and understanding of the world-you won't be smart enough to do your dream job-you'll have no money(no one will provide you financial support for your whole life)-you'll earn nothing to provide yourself and your family with luxuries-you'll drown into the depths of poverty and live a life that will frustrate you and will make you regret all the bad choices you had made in your life.
