Without that, you are occupationally dead, unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison and you can successfully drop out in grade school.Get a college degree, if possible. With a B. A., you are on the launching pad (发射台). But now you have to

15、start to put on the brakes. If you go for a masters degree, make sure it is an M. B. A. , and only from a first-rate university. Beyond this, the famous law of diminishing returns (报酬递减率) begins to take effect.Do you know, for instance, that long-haul truck drivers earn more a year than full profess

16、ors?Yes, the average 1977 salary for those truckers was $24, 000, while the full professors managed to average just $23,930.A Ph.

Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands.Thousands of Ph.D.s are selling shoes, driving cabs, waiting on tables and filling out fruitless applications month after month. And then maybe taking a job in some high school or backwater
