#1 When we transferred over to Germany, Mr. Wife's company offered to buy him a doctorate so he wouldn't be at a disadvantage when dealing with colleagues. BS/BA meant technician/secretary; all the managers had PhDs and 400-series Mercedes or 500-series BMWs.

I could understand if the aristocratic (Dr.) zu Guttenberg had purchased a doctorate he was too muddle-headed to earn. But why bother with plagiarizing when, since one has already done all the coursework and research, the text should write itself from one's own knowledge?
