Ehh, more advanced degree would probably help somewhat, although incentives are pretty messed up there too in different ways. The university I went to and program I took are both highly regarded—I'm biased, of course, but I've heard this from various less-biased sources.

I'm instead going to train my thinking skills on things like my business, because there I get actual feedback from the world on how successful I am. Also because the feedback there is made of dollars.
