    lol bruh. I couldn’t get my job without my PhD because of bullshit elitism, but fuck if I give a damn about 1-electron transfers n shit. I make money by handling money and writing code. Worked out handsomely for me.

    Like Nas says: go legit. Believe in yoself. Live the life you deserve.

      As someone in an important position once said to me, having a PhD shows that you have frustration tolerance.

        This angle would be akin to saying that a PhD degree is like having tattoos and other body modifications on your brain and probably on your cardiac muscle.
