sorry to add to the off topic discussion but I wish I had a degree. any degree.
I've had opportunities where I had the abilities and experience but I couldn't get my foot in the door because I didn't have a degree of some sort.
I remember one university area I was in. there was a number of support staff jobs that you didn't even need a high school diploma for. They rewrote the job description to get it a grade higher in pay and made having university degree a requirement.
not having degree often does limit one's upward mobility.
