It’s a lot of fucking work. If you enjoy hard work, learning about the latest advancements in your field, and can handle disappointment / criticism well, then it’s something to look into.

that and if you can find lab/group with recent publications and funding. not sticking too hard to failed ideas also helps

Having a shitload of money is also quite handy for such endeavors.

Ideally. Also if you’re in social science . . . ehh. It’s your money.
