I am surprised at the road taken in this thread. To me this is better,
or least more easily, handled as
earnings as response
experience as predictor
foreign qualifications as predictor (indicator variable. some say dummy)
and as such a fairly standard regression model, except that a
logarithmic link or equivalent would seem natural.
I am not an economist, although British readers might like to be
impressed by my A-level in Economics (Grade A) in 1969, so I may
easily be misreading this.
