“Commit to unfunded PhD”

Supervisor dismissed my concerns, saying I was being negative and overcomplicating things.

What I wish I knew
"More transparency about funding and research costs."
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't be afraid to ask questions and advocate for yourself in PhD negotiations."
