A Proper Introduction

Be careful not to get too many degrees, I hear you end up back where you started Wink

Ha!!  Agreed. A la Aristotle:

"The truth is the simplest and most complicated thing to have ever existed.  While no one hits it precisely, no one misses it entirely."

Funny thing is you have to leave degrees off your resume.  Otherwise you are too educated to be employed.  My dad has more degrees than I do and warned me of this phenomena ahead of time.  Nonetheless it is still shocking.

I will be starting degrees Seven and Eight soon enough.

Good lord!  Why?  Given your other interests some interest in patent law I can imagine.  Tax and contracts too, if you want to start your own company, but it would be simpler to just hire an attorney.  But all things considered I can't imagine why you bothered with law.  Or why you'd consider more education rather than simply putting what you've got to use.  Wink  One would think you were more than ready to simply pursue independent research.

To each his own I guess.

Why?  For the same reason most of you are atheist!  Rather than to blindly trust what another tells me, I endeavor to have sufficient education of the things as to have an intelligent conversation and know when I am being lied to.  Cannot just accept it on blind faith. Big Grin
