My Uncle and Stepfather are in the same field with degrees, and making 6 figures a piece. So in most circumstances you can have the world by its balls with a degree.

I will agree with that in certain cases. I know that I struggled with 20-30k a year jobs before I got the degree, but now I make around 70k a year. For out here where my mortgage is only $540 a month, that's a lot of money. Some of that has to do with my maturity of the years too. I've learned a lot from observations, and making mistakes.
