First of all, what kind of degrees are we talking about? Liberal arts? A P.H.D. in philosophy? I mean, give me a break. I bet there's nobody with a Nursing degree out of work. We all make our choices in life. Too many times people have been told fairy tales about "you can be anything you want to be" and "reach for the stars". Well thats all great and everything, but make sure you have something to fall back on before you chase your dream in Horticulture.
