MODERATORS
I hope they picked a field with high demand, like medical something. Otherwise they're gonna be grinding a 9-5 and be $300k in debt forever.
PhDs in many fields, particularly the physical sciences, are funded. Lost wages are real of course, but you can often come out the other side without accumulating any debt.
Only in the land of the free
not true! I also chose to have enormous medical debt
do what you love whilst you can, with all the people with power ignoring climate change we might not have the chance to enjoy ourselves later
