Seriously, why even waste your time with PhD's.

Any other network security fags here? Industry is hiring like crazy if you are willing to travel a bit.

Because then I'll be referred to as 'Doctor.' It's kind of a big deal.

General networking here, going for an interview for a security position on thursday. CISSP is smalltime, I think you meant to say CCIE.

because if you aren't married and have no kids/dependents then once you start making over 100k you'll be just handing over your money to the government.

bullshit op. I gave up after my ccna since I still couldn't land a job after a year of sending out resumes and interviews; most dumbass human resources people don't even know what ccna is much less cissp.

Fuck this shit earth.

A yearly salary of $4 million as a practicing physician? Unless you're a cosmetic surgeon in LA or NY, not a fucking chance. The few MDs I've met you hit multi-million dollar salaries (through my mother, a physician) changed careers, going into finance or consulting.

CCIE is for failures. CCIE is to CISSP what trade school is to university. Functional, but not as respected.

>>4312953
>How many years in uni is that?
I have a bachelor in computer science, but looking back I could have gotten to where I am without the degree. Just require a couple years of self study and setting up your own lab. I learned most of the stuff I use outside of the classroom, though the stuff on programming theory is useful for finding exploits in software. Its all about memory pointers bro.

>>4313004
CCNA's are bullshit. Any fucktard can get that. I got my CCNA at a community college before I even knew what I wanted to do. If you are applying for a help desk position, then yeah they don't care. If you want to make money in security, then having a CISSP is huge. Almost all Chief Security Officers and Vice Presidents of IT have a CISSP. I do some consulting work and a CISSP is very nice to have on the resume. CCNA is like getting an A in math 111. No one cares.

I never said ccnas are hard to get, theres just no point in getting more if I'm not seeing any payoff. Sure, you're a lucky piece of shit that just happened to fall in the right circumstances but not everyone is.

Thats like saying "I couldn't get a sweet ass job with my GED so I decided that getting a PhD probably wasn't worthwhile either"
