learning is a life Long process. It doesn't stop after doctorate, etc.

zoomckng,

If you believe that, why do you need a piece of paper like Phd in order to learn??

I'm looking forward to a phd. I really like the thrill of knowledge and getting recgnition for it. Money is secondary to me.

Hopefully this is a good enough reason to get a PhD lol.

brightjoey,

That means you DO NOT LOVE what you are learning. Or else, you will do it for FREE.

People that really LOVE knowledge do it for the FUN of it. They do not care whether they get any recognition or paper out of it.

I have thousands of books at home. It covers religion, philosophy, culture, history, and so on... I spent 20+ years of my free time on System Theory. I do it for the FUN of it.

So, what have you LEARN without getting a piece of paper??
