Questions are rising in value while answers are declining because known answers are everywhere and are easily accessible. Although, we are drowning in all of this information; even the value of explicit information is dropping.

 Tony Wagner says, Knowledge is now becoming as commodity. A commodity is a basic good used in commerce that is interchangeable with other goods of the same type. I would agree with this because knowledge can be very resourceful, especially the right knowledge. For example, having knowledge about the stock market or anything that makes money; can turn my knowledge into an asset because now I can share my knowledge and be paid for the information I obtain.

As Paul Bottino says, the real value is what you can do with that knowledge.
