As someone who's friends with multiple grad students who are funded by the NSF ... this is not the opinion I've heard from them. They're all working on awesome research that could actually help people, and yet they struggle to get by.

What is a typical annual stipend? $37K? Sounds barely livable depending on the location, roommate situation, your stage in life, etc.

~$50k at MIT. Barely livable but livable. You can also complement this stipend with internships and other opportunities.

The usual stipend is much lower for grad students.
