Clearly not "worthless" if you plan on spending your career teaching or researching in academia. Otherwise...people should really, really count the cost.

- Blahah 13y agoFor me, the value of the PhD is in the experience itself. Few get to experience, full time for 4 years, the intellectual freedom that my PhD affords. Even if I never work in academia, or my PhD doesn't help me get a much better job than I would otherwise have got, I'll still always be glad to have done it.
