    Thanks for the background.

    I assumed this was not unlike a Nathalie Portman or Emma Watson situation where we were all supposed to be amazed that limitless money & opportunity had nothing to do with academic achievement.

    Most students in the US/Canada/Asia face very difficult choices - should they invest years & years & years pursuing a very unsure career path that isn’t particularly remunerative? Is it time to stop after the master’s…?

    So it’s always enraging to see “celebrity is actually a genius!” when they are able to fulfill the dreams you had for yourself because time/money is simply not an issue for them.

    … Yes, I am a little bitter, lol…
