Zerogreenchief is eh pretty cool guy, eh trolls people and doesn't afraid of anything.
Majors like Psychology (me) and english are broad enough that they can be used effectively, but often used by people who have no idea what they are doing and end up with terrible jobs.
Sure you can go for 4 years of psych graduate and become a counselor (if you go for your masters if not you have to be like an aid or a mental health technician") and make no money, or you can go into applied psych or experimental go to graduate school and have a better shot at landing a job.
It's hard these days just to stick to one discipline, companies dont want that. They want people with
multidisciplinary experience. Like me I studied clinical psych, decided that was hella boring, now im going for my masters ina computer science field related to psychology, called Human Factors. I still have a fear that I may not find anything but it's broad enough that I should have skillsets desriable somewhere.
But you know whats really useless? Fine Arts. hurr i can draw good. Unless you are EXCELLENT like top 5% and do something like 3d modeling, its waste of tens of thousands of dollars just to finger paint. All those times I was writing research papers those clowns were outside drawing trees and houses and other nonsense.
