Once you get older 2-3 years in life is just a small delta/noise. I have seen so many students drop out of a successful masters with publications instead of continuing to do a PhD because they wanted to finally stop studying. A PhD is really useful even in industry -- its true that a masters will initially get you successful faster but after 10-15 years in the industry the PhD starts to matter for leadership positions.
