Whatever You Do, Don't Go To Graduate School (huh?!)

Unless you are already extremely wealthy or well-connected.

… if you care about money. If you can be poor and happy, go to graduate school.

So:

  1. in the humanities.  The full title makes a bit of a difference as they’re directly comparing it to professional graduate degrees.
  2. It says nothing about being rich or poor, happy or sad, what it’s about is working in your chosen field.

Biggest crock of bullshit I’ve seen on Tumblr. Please, ignore the original post(er).
