My financial planner made the argument to me that the real money comes from authoring your own standard.

My experience has not been good, but everyone I've ever known that self-identifies as a "project manager" is a hot mess. With your experience I don't know that a PMP cert would feather your nest in the slightest; they're for people who do karaoke on Fridays, not the guys who worked for IFOR.

I would estimate the time you could stuff into a PMP and apply that to what you could do to visibly, demonstrably, attributably improve where you are now because that's one thing nobody else can put on their resume.
