@Thedragonslayer So Yeah. Anyone can lie about that shit. I could surely have two masters at 30.

It’s not possible time wise unless you needed no sleep, food or water and just did that then maybe just maybe you could have all that by 30@Rokasu

@Thedragonslayer well no I surely didn’t. I was lieing out my ass. I have a degree and that’s it. PhD in the works.

Look, you could get two Master's degrees as well. It just takes a lot of luck and time.. People know this.
Let's take me for example. When I entered university, I had no prior fancy knowledge of higher high school math/economics/philosophy/etc like my over-privileged rich classmates did. When I started out, I knew squat, nothing, zero. I had to study 14 to 16 hours per day (as much as the Med students studied) just to catch up all the high-class education I missed. I struggled very hard in Economics classes and they were just like "bahahah, I know this". Yes, I got my degree in the end. It was one of the toughest battles of my life. Many got left behind (15% of people graduated.. sad number), but I sure was proud when I stood there among those who made it.
Anyway, I know of myself that I could pull off a Master's degree or two (or even a Ph. D., MD and so on) for the simple reason that I think at that level already and yes, many people don't. Consequently, I'm not worried about my intelligence compared to anyone because I know I can get there too.
Not all of us were lucky enough to have had a perfect educational timeline.. Some of us had to fight really hard to make it all the way through.

Nah, I just figure they couldn't make up their mind what they wanted to do when they grew up.

Those places really change a person

@SW-User I can vouch for that, having been educated at a similar place. One of the consequences is, though, that everyone thinks you're a nutter and most people don't understand what you talk about. What is for you day to day, easy material, for regular people it's weird, alien rocket science.
