It's funny, people always discount arts degrees, but some of the most successful people I know have them. Photographers, Interior Designers, Architects, Graphic Designers...you can make a healthy living in these fields if you're good at what you do. Fine Arts or something like a Philosophy degree? Sure, good luck with that. But if you get a degree that can be applied to business, there is legitimate opportunity out there.
And when the robots come for all our jerbs, they are some of the tougher ones to automate.
