I have a PhD and work "full-time" (academics) and don't make as much as many with no degree. I have met hair dressers who earn twice and three times what I do.

Do I regret my PhD? Not at all. I enjoy my job. In fact, I'd be doing exactly the same thing if I weren't paid: learning, researching, writing and teaching.
