How do you make the world better without any useful skills?

Being nice is nice, but it doesn't cure cancer

Who said don’t have any skills? There are different ways to make the world better, and certainly each takes a different set of skills. If your way of helping the world is advancing biomedical research, you will need those skills. It’s downstream of the top-level prerogative, if you wanna put it that way.

>become a good person

>become a good citizen

these are skills.

these are what you teach your children.
