    The more PhDs I know and the closer I am to grad school, the more it feels like getting a PhD is about being stubborn than it is about being smarter than everyone in the room.

      If you have to pay to get a PhD then you were fleeced and probably deserve to lose that money

        Yeah, I got paid to do gradschool. Not much cuz I didn’t shop around and just stayed where I did undergrad, but yeah, once you’re doing research, they should be paying you.

        According to the NCES, in 2015-16 the average PhD graduate had about $100k student debt
