@Crystal Wow, thank you for your great comment and sniharg your experience. I do think degrees are useful but so is constant learning and retraining where necessary (as you highlighted in your own experience). Asking the question if a degree is necessary is a great way to start a rich conversation. Yes, a degree is a great insurance policy, yes, it teaches you skills that you can take forward, if you are so inclined, to start a profitable business. There are exceptions to the rule but they are exactly that, exceptions. Thanks again for taking the time to share your story!
