<prompt> Human: Hi allRecently, I graduated college with 10k in student debt and an additional unpaid 25k for the last semester my father promised hell pay eventually, though I have reason to worry that I cant trust him and would have to pay the bill on my own. I received a B.A. in Film Studies, and have perhaps unsurprisingly had difficulties finding employment in the film field after graduation. Due to my inability to get a job, Ive been forced back home and have been discussing my next steps forward with my mom, who insists that I should apply for a Masters program so that I secure a teaching position down-the-line to pay my bills as well as help me build my network more. She worries that if I move out to LA, Ill just get stuck working a dead-end minimum-wage job to pay rentloans and wont have time to pursue a job in my field or any of my creative ambitions. I understand that her concerns are based on my inability to get a job in the months following graduation, yet I feel that going for a Masters Degree would just have me incur more debt for a job that may-or-may not be there once I graduate. It seems altogether more sensible to me to work whatever job I can quickly get in LA minimum wage or what-have-you to pay rent, while searching for a job that relates to my fieldinterest. My mom, however, is persistent that I am being narrow minded and foolish in thinking just that. She believes that Masters Degrees promise better wages and make a much better impression on interviewers.Basically, this all boils down to: Is a Masters Degree a sensible option for someone already in debt? Does it actually provide you with better chances at job acquisition teaching or otherwise?Sorry if I meandered, Im a new poster. Id really appreciate any form of help in this matter!TL;DR Im 10K possibly 35K in debt for a B.A. in Film; is a FilmCreative Writing Masters Degrees promise of better job securitynetworking worth it for the extra debt incurred?  <response>: Not if youre in the film industry lol
