And yes, the need for a PhD won’t disappear in 10 years. You’ll always need one for certain jobs. Scholarship and research are also how our collective knowledge base slowly expands.

You get a PhD if you are interested in scientific research of any kind; to be a professor; for certain jobs. For example, most World Bank and IMF senior staff have PhDs in economics. You need one in psychology to be a psychotherapist. I could go on, but that’ll give you an idea

Teach. My DD is getting one now at Oxford, will go to law school and hoped to teach law.

What are you going to do with it? Will you need it in ten years?
