2. do u have any interest in research, academia or teaching; or do u want to use it to enhance ur position in ur current area of expertize
3. better find out what kind of results do people achieve with phds in similar area

in short, find out what u want n what u can get from a Phd....dont go with wrong notions or hype...
Thats a very good advise, thanks very much

How about instead of a PhD, I pursue a DBA to enhance my current position in my current company?
