I give the kids I go to school with two pieces of advice-

1- Finish your degree now, so you aren’t my age and back in school.

2- Marry an orphan.

LOL

Sound advice on both parts. We told out son, get that degree now. He’ll have the BS in December, but going for the PhD. He was thinking of waiting in the PhD. I said Nope, you get it now. You get into the real world and time flies and before you know it, you have other commitments and you never get it. Then he found out that the major companies would rather he get the PhD first as well.

But, wouldn’t you just know that he would graduate in Dec, nearly a year early. I bought a shot glass for him with his 2013 graduation date and MSU on it. So I told him about it and asked if he had someone he could give it to. So much surprises! lol
