[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [b]I have no idea how you got this idea from DCUM, incidentally. [/b] Hopefully it isn't projecting. But to answer your question, no, I don't. I am a PhD scientist and a professor at one of the best universities in the country in a really technical field, but the smartest person I've ever worked with (in industry) was a college dropout, and no not Bill Gates. Degrees are personal betterment but jobs can be too and neither really changes your core smarts. And just to reinforce the point I should say that I prefer to work with students as I find that my postdocs (who have PhDs) actually are often more brittle in their thinking and not necessarily more knowledgeable. [/quote] Well I do spend a lot of time on the money and schools forums which tend to be full of braggarts. Perhaps it's less true of the rest of the site.[/quote]
