Not only that but you have to consider that a lot of jobs are Degrees determined and the top paying ones will either require a phD or at least a Msc with 4-5 years experience. So if you are on the money making path (long run) then invest in yourself and go for it.
This concept of social adhesion you are talking about has had a positive impact upon society, in terms of promoting learning and development resources as well. I can only think about this one example. It would have never crossed my mind I could actually try to get an online certificate, which by that time was my only solution of completing my studies, hadn`t I seen this friend of mine on a social media network updating his education info with these master of nursing degrees. I have seen, browsed and read about it and afterwards I entered it myself.
