I could accept an argument that sometimes it may be the right move to take on (reasonable) debt, but I doubt you’ll find a single instance where you _have_ to do it.
i've moved away from this thinking over the last decade. started to question anything that leads to taking debt. anthropic skilljar courses are excellent and they give a cert at the end of it. good to add to linkedin.
