What happens to your hopes of a better future when your country is thrown into chaos? Should you stay or should you go? These are the difficult dilemmas facing Egypt's aspiring young people. We talk to ordinary Egyptians about whether they'll stay and struggle through the upheaval or whether they should seek their fortunes elsewhere - and if they do, how will that affect their nation's economy? One Egyptian emigre, Mahmoud Youseff, explains why he is optimistic about his country's future. Plus, regular contributor, Wycliffe Muga, on why a university degree isn't always the secret of success. He says in Kenya even quite humble jobs can now attract hundreds of very well qualified graduates.
