Graduating with a B.S. in Econ, hopefully a B.B.A. Accounting in a year, then a J.D., then an LL.M., then (! after a term of service in the Air Force) a DBA with a concentration in finance and accounting.

But until then, I got bupkis.

:p

Cheers!

See obviously PhD is gonna win cuz there's no higher level available.

I think it's time to invent one...screw this Doctor stuff. I think "Great Lord" should be a title. Screw that Esquire or Doctor stuff.

I mean come on, why have people call you Dr, when they can call you Great Lord?

How does 15 years sound for the time it takes to become a Great Lord? Make it like waaay harder than a PhD, and more work. But the payoff would be sweet.

That's "Great Lord" to you!

Do you ever answer your own questions?

Who let elementary students in???

Goodbye!

Why? Do you have uncontrollable urges towards elementary school students?

Yes, there is something higher than PhD: postdocs.

I used to hire postdoc physics PhD's in one of my former businesses, and paid them minimum wage. Does that make me better than them?

BMus, BS(CS) and MS(CS) here.

Huh?

Just about everyone who gets a PhD in the sciences does a postdoc. It is not a degree.

I think what badmouse was referring to was the comment made earlier that there was nothing above a doc. degree. There are no actual degrees above that but if you base it on continuing your education then post doctoral work would be the highest that you would be able to go.
