The professors in the US aren’t living in their cars because they pay isn’t adequate it’s because of the cost of the huge amount of student debt it takes to become a phd
See this actually makes sense, but it is also entirely their own fault. You should only ever do a PhD if you're getting paid to do it by being sponsored by a company or from a scholarship fund. That's how I ended up doing my PhD. The kinds of people taking our loans to become a PhD probably shouldn't be doing a PhD in the first place. It's not like an undergraduate degree.
