BTW, I have an engineering degree and an MBA, both from top programs. Less than 5% of the MBAs I went to school with were capable of surviving an engineering curriculum, mainly due to lack of math ability.

Yeah, even a bachelors in engineering at a good school is very tough.
But the toughest part is the math. So, I think a doctorate in EE, ME, ChemE, (don't know about CE,SE,PE,etc.), math, stat, CS, hard science trumps most else (maybe not MD) because you can't hide from the math -- either you figure it out, or you flunk out.
I'm surprised we're not coming up with more PhDs in those areas who kill poker. I guess they make way more $ doing something else.

Most people who do PhD's in those types of fields are not money driven at all. Most are also pretty risk averse, as well, which means that poker is pretty low on most of these people's priority lists. Trust me.
Dr Sucker, PhD (Physical Chemistry)

Most people who do PhD's in those types of fields "weren't" money driven. lol
