4. And how much debt are you in after all of this?
1. I got a MS and a Ph.D. Didn't have to get the MS, but went for it anyway to prove a point. Now, I have no energy to fight for what I believe in anymore. It's all rather pointless to me at this time...
2. I went to grad school directly after undergrad... Hindsight is always 20/20, but I prolly should I worked after undergrad and waited...
3. I's fureed, I's got my freedom papers and I thanked massa--I mean those white men that fureed me--I mean handed me my degrees... That's the way it is in the sciences... Wait till you really write NIH formatted grants...
4. No monetary debt, just life experience debt--the independence thing I neglected to learn in my 20's and now I am learning in my late 30's--without kids.
