Here is the definition, since you apparently missed that day in English 101.
1 : of or relating to you or yourself or yourselves especially as possessor or possessors <your bodies>, agent or agents <your contributions>, or object or objects of an action <your discharge>

The proper word would've been YOU"RE, as in "..doesn't mean you are educated."

I don't think I will be 'done' with my Masters so eventually I would like go back to school again.

Of the people I know from school that have or are still working on their PhD's:
- Most were taking around 4-6 years, some longer, some I swear will never get out because they can't decide wtf to do for a thesis and end up helping everyone else write papers. Others stalled for years, got married and then they suddenly graduated once their wives gave them hell for taking so long.
- A few went to work for Intel & AMD and one to ARM, all doing a cross between research and future product development. One finished up a PhD in AI and ended up in a Chicago start-up that does something with stock trading. A couple others ended up teaching at other universities. Another, who was ridiculously smart even by PhD standards, ended up teaching at the same school where he picked up the PhD

The one's I work with are primarily tasked with analyzing performance and figuring out what needs to be done to beat the competition. The group they're in is split around 50-50 between PhD and MS degrees.

Don't crap on the thread because you have daddy issues.

Son, I *am* your daddy. My opinion, Phd = I want a title to say I am better than everyone else.

What's a "real university"? I have degrees from accredited universities, which have respected degree programs. Since they aren't Ivy League, are they fake or "cracker jack shit"? You're about to piss off a lot of members. The vast majority of us who are over 22, have college degrees.

Yeah, you're wrong broham. A typo does not = improper grammar. I made a typo, but my grammar was correct.

The sentances your arguing over in this thread is rediculous. ROFL. None of it help to answer OP question.
