A Horse of a Different Color- Maybe ?

Self-satisfaction:
"This is a perfectly good reason for wanting a degree, and no one should EVER feel embarrassed about it. Many degree-counseling clients (see appendix C) seek a degree (generally a Doctorate) for self-satisfaction, to gain respect from others, to feel more comfortable with colleagues, or to validate a long and worthwhile career. Such people are Generally Well Satisfied with a degree from one of the more respectable unaccredited schools."
--John Bear--Bear's Guide--1997--page 22

wow!
an ad for a $199 "no-question-asked" doctorate couriered COD at one's door could not be any better.

"Many job descriptions specify that a certain degree is required, or that additional salary wil be paid, if a certain degree is held. In MANY of these situations, a GOOD Unaccredited Degree will SUFFICE."
--John Bear--Bear's Guide--1997-page 21

well, it is true many employers wouldn't tell if you printed a good (fake) quality diploma at home on premium paper. It is as well true that unscrupulous people like John Bear, George Brown etc are always going to talk double dutch and clintonese about the core matter...Yes it is as i said...no, half and a quarter...define "suffice"...my statement was qualified...i said "most cases"...
No wonder they operated or designed or promoted "unaccredited" schools themselves...obviously it reads "unaccredited" or better yet "alternative" when their altedspeak decodes on their end..."degree mill", "degree worth jail time in six states", " PO box basement operation" when their coded speak decodes after the sucker paid the money and they are on the way back from the bank and working with/for a different operation.
