What advantages did educated people get over other inhabitants of Ancient Egypt?

A significant part of the population of ancient Egypt could neither read nor write. This was due to the fact that then it was very difficult to get an education, since there were very few schools, books and teachers who would give such knowledge. In this connection, a person who knew how to write and read held a special place in Egyptian society. So he could become a clerk, treasurer, or take up another influential position.
