A masters degree diploma probably doesn't cover as much wall space as a doctorate diploma. My J.D. is big, huge, pretty, and I curse it every time I look at it.
masters is fine ... PhD is a waste of time unless u plan to teach ... i have one and besides having taught me how to solve complex problems it has not been much use .... but if it was not for it i would not be living here ...so i guess it had a LOT of VALUE!
