Hi,
which would make your PHD in what? having fun?
Well, technically in physics. But since physics is fun (at least to every physicist I know, we sure as hell don't do it for the money ;) ) I guess it is in "fun".
I wish I could get a PHD in having fun
You can. Find something you enjoy doing then find the nearest field to that that is taught at university level. Odds are, you can have fun in school and in whatever jobs you get later on. Or, in the words of Bob Dylan, you can become one of those
"Who despise their jobs, their destinies
Speak jealously of them that are free
Cultivate their flowers to be
Nothing more than something
They invest in."
The choice is yours. You'll probably have to "work" for most of your life (unless you were born rich), so it makes a bit of sense to find something you wanted to do anyway and get people to pay you for doing it.
Oh, and BTW, it's "Ph.D." for the degree. "PHD" is probably some bureaucratic nonsense like "Public Health Division". ;)
