[quote=Anonymous]What is interesting is to look at BLS statistics ([url]https://www.bls.gov/emp/chart-unemployment-earnings-education.htm[/url]) People with the highest degrees have the lowest unemployment rate and highest salaries (ok, prof. degrees are higher than doctoral degrees in salary). But, PhD's have a 1.5% unemployment rate, and $1743*52=90636 median salary. You might not be able to directly work in your field but the analytical approaches you learn will have broad applications.
