Maybe it's changed since then, but when I went there, they actually paid my tuition and a monthly stipend. It wasn't much (like $1000/mo), but it helped pay for food and rent.

I have considered going back for a PhD, but if it were full time...I would have to give up $100K+ per year in salary while attending. It would likely not increase my salary a cent...and would possibly decrease my yearly income. Even if it resulted in an additional $10-$20K per year...I would be long dead...or retired before making up the difference (which is a sure thing).

Some are born free. Some have freedom thrust upon them. Others simply surrender
