Here's a question: Imagine this new bubble has just popped, 5 or 50 years from now. What do people looking to both learn something of substance and be highly compensated for it study? Biotech? Engineering? Materials science?
- RougeFemme 14y agoPossibly something that most of us haven't thought of/aren't aware of currently.
- jacques_chester 14y agoI don't feel qualified to predict what professions will be well compensated in 50 years. Some of them don't exist yet. 5 years? Still no idea.
- wissler 14y agoIdeally look at the kinds of problems that are difficult and important and that we have a long way to go in, such as nanotech, biotech, and materials science. Compensation ought to be more or less irrelevant, you just want to do something worthwhile and get paid enough that you can keep doing it.
- barry-cotter 14y agoBzzt. Idealism and an accompanying implicit ideology detected. Naked apes strive after status, prestige, respect, all of which are similar enough and all of which make money easier to get.
- wissler 14y agoSpeak for yourself, cynic.
