English is not your first language. If you grew up in a different culture and then came to the U.S. to study, your experience was very different from mine. I further speculate that if you could come from another country and could afford to get multiple degrees, you may have started from a place of privilege and a family that could give you many experiences that mine could not. If so, just attending college might not have been nearly as life-changing for you as it was for me -- just moving to another country would have been life-changing on its own. I have never made a good living, but I know how to think. I largely learned that from college.
