Why is PhD pay so shit. I'm not saying you should get GS PM type salaries but come on.
You are getting paid to study, it's alright.
>>109110905>Why is PhD pay so shit.Like 90% of you aren't doing anything that's worth the pay you're getting anyways so I'd say just stop complaining and enjoy your money for nothing.
>>109110947what do most high wage employees do that's worth they pay they're getting
>>109110947>just be a content slave goyFuck off faggotPhD students are more valuable than your entire genealogy going back 300 heard
>>109111018>students are more valuablelmao>300 heardclassic phone fagcomplete retard from start to finish
>>109111009High wage ones know how to keep business running, if we're talking about a rather smol company.When it grows and becomes very stable, the high paid ones are people that got there through connections, ass licking or pure psychopathy.
>>109111009a business makes money. a university costs money. hope that helps.
>>109111094interesting how the business makes money using the university's output but gets to externalize all of the costs of that
>>109111094In Europe at least University departments actively engage and work with industry.>>109110947Goldman Sachs PMs are just shuffling money around.
>>109111094>business pay university labs bare minimum to research and develop shit for them>they sell the product of that research >shareholders profit Is more how it goes
>>109111111QUINTS of TRVTH
>>109111111businesses are among the largest financiers of universities, retard.if a researcher is actually worth anything they can work in a business.university wages are low because a lot of the research they do is useless.
>>109111111Meanwhile IRL, Wright brother's inventing airplanes and Heaviside fixing telegraphs. Go study Latin or something.
>>109111153Working on gadgets that fight cancer cells is useless?
>>109111094>Replies seethingGood summary.Reseach is a gamble. It's hard to know what research will be useful until after it's done (sometimes even then it takes years for completed research to turn relevant).A lot of the most promising research is done at big corporations by well-paid PhDs. Universities have more long-shot stuff.
>>109110905What do you produce that is worth money?
>>109111422>here's the useless research nobody asked for>that'll be $100ksee, I can cherrypick, too.we both know companies spend gorillions on cancer research.
