Except the think tank ones we know who are specialists, top of their game, and make millions off books, speeches and papers.
Some chemist ones we know are doing well too.
The FRB and IMF ones we know are miserable.
Selling textbooks to colleges is lucrative. Make sure to change the version around every couple years so there is no resale market. You’ll be good, a la stiglitz or mankiw.

PhD in Economics. Mid-six figure income living here in the DC area. Put my kids through private schools and university. I’m not miserable, and my kids graduated from university debt-free.
I’m not sure what your beef is with PhDs, but it’s not a bad life at all.
Awesome, then you must already know that your alleged income is in the top 0.01% of econ Phd grads!
Want to enlighten us what the mean and average econ Phd grad makes?

Stop pretending to not know the reputation of >90% of Phd grads in America.
A huge number of college dropouts with big ideas go nowhere. Most PhDs are gainfully employed. But you do you.
Don’t worry about me or my spouse. We both have two master degrees and are C level.
Neither of us would hire a phd, they wouldn’t fit in to our industry nor function; it’s too fast moving,
requires decisions under uncertainty plus managing internal and external people.
Your grasp of the English language is lacking. Maybe have AI help with your next corporate mumbo-jumbo Jabberwocky pep talk.

You sound ignorant. The type of person that someone with a PhD would avoid.
Whelp, when you stay home 364/7/24 except for one conference a year, yeah, you successfully avoid most people.
Low IQ people like you

Hilarious thread. It’s probably 75% one person posting and attacking OPs subject line wording.
