Is a PhD in computer science worth it financially?

Studies show that those earning a doctorate (PhD) earn more than those without an advanced degree; however, a student debt crisis is keeping many from enjoying the benefits of higher pay if employed at all. If considering a PhD, first review the return on investment (ROI) associated with the cost of education and likely financial outcome or benefit from the degree earned, if any. The best advice is to avoid debt by working for a company offering financial assistance, paying from personal savings, or working multiple jobs. I’ve personally worked with students who were $100k+ in debt, at risk to graduate, and little to no chance that any job they may get would sufficiently earn enough to pay the debt. This is not a good financial decision, nor an outcome most would want to be in and would rather be avoided, if known, in advance of deciding to pursue their degree. However, with the proper financing, earning a PhD can be very beneficial and positively life changing. Understand the options and implications either way before deciding to pursue your PhD (doctorate).
