I love learning.
But like, I don't know, is that wrong?
Is it a waste of time to be learning?
Yeah, you definitely find that in academia.
You get these little bubbles where no one challenges anyone's basic assumptions because there aren't enough outsiders learning about the conversations that are taking place in the particular bubble.
choice though,
And I feel like you kind of just described college versus PhD school right there.
Like college is the time where you're excited to learn about all new things.
You're kind of a neophyte.
And then like, you know, doing your PhD is the time in which you've been like conscripted into the service of a field.
You're no longer like working for yourself.
You're working for the field, right?
And now there's like ideology to contend with, not as much ideology perhaps to contend with when you're like shopping around the buffet of college classes.
Hmm.
Are there fields where it's the reverse, where there's no payoff for the first few years that you study it, and then suddenly it just gets exponentially better once you've put in a certain amount of time?
Do
No.
I think it's not like that.
Okay.
No, more like economics, I would say.
