[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work with a few women who were SAHMs/ grandmothers who earned a doctorate over the age of 40/45. I was 34 when I finished my doctorate. I am also a woman. I received stipends and graduate research positions and had published articles and presentations. I had a full time job as a defense contractor. My employer paid for my tuition. I was able to complete my dissertation research as part of my job. I would never have paid so much money for an online degree as a doctorate, which I see mostly women paying, for a job that pays around $32 an hour. Why would a 50-year-old put themselves in debt like that? Why not invest that money in something more lucrative like a small business? [/quote] If you have a PhD why do you write so poorly?[/quote]
