This is my favorite genre of article in the world. Why don't professors do more to warn the most highly educated, intelligent young people in the country not to go hundreds of thousands of dollars into debt? How else could they possibly figure it out?https://www.wsj.com/articles/financially-hobbled-for-life-the-elite-masters-degrees-that-dont-pay-off-11625752773 …

I was told, while interviewing at Johns Hopkins and at Harvard, I needed more than one world-famous professor from my #1 uni recommending me for PhDs. Got rejected everywhere except for one of these scams. Top-3 research uni. Privilege is not enough. Expertise is not enough.

None of it's enough. It's like wanting to be a gold medalist or First Piccolo in a symphony orchestra. You're up against the most passionate and talented people in the world for a tiny number of slots, and the world is a big place.
