2. Education: Coursera 

Coursera is an education platform that partners with top universities such as Harvard, Yale, or the MIT, but also organization worldwide, to offer courses online for anyone to take. Coursera

The number of courses is so large, and their content so diverse, that the platform already seduced more than 15 millions users! For instance you can choose courses such as Web Development & Coding, Private Equity & Venture Capital, but also Tibetan Buddhist Meditation, or Dog Emotion & Cognition.

If you finish your course and pass your online tests, you can choose to pay around 60$ (depending on the university) to receive a formal recognition for your accomplishment. I guess having a Harvard course certificate with the official stamp hang up on your wall can be quite satisfying!
