I think a doctorate sets a person apart. Also, people in specialties, such as financial planning, real estate (for example) might have certain qualifications that merit an abbreviation after their name. In my opinion, MBA, MFA, etc., do not qualify. This is STRICTLY a personal opinion. CW5 Private RallyPoint Member Tue, 04 Nov 2014 17:19:17 -0500 2014-11-04T17:19:17-05:00 2014-11-04T15:54:37-05:00
