[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Plenty of folks get PhDs, choose not to pursue academia, and will often find many opportunities to make quite a bit of money in the private sector.[/quote] True for some fields, for others, it is usually considered a disappointment or settling not to get an academic job, as that is what you are trained for in grad school.[/quote] That's fine, I just thought it was odd that some PPs were making broad-brushed statements about PhDs as wastes of money when obviously the universe of possible/likely career paths is so field-dependent.[/quote] Good point.
