I've done my time in elementary & high school...I've got my Bachelor's degree...I've even got a Master's. The field I'm working in, though, is tight unless one has a Doctorate.
I'd get a Doctorate if it wasn't for the fact that I've spent so much $$$ on what I've got now. I've got over $30K in student loans that are costing me $444.50 a month to pay off. But if I stay in my field, I'd need a Doctorate to earn the extra $$$ to get a Doctorate to earn the $$$...
Aaah, the ol' Catch-22.
How much schooling is enough? How much is too much? How do you balance the immediate cost of an education with the projected costs - and benefits - down the road?

My knob tastes funny.
