Got my degrees in fisheries and marine invertebrates a long time ago (am 62) then never used them because I refused to work for the government after one summer of gov't work. The degrees almost cost me my first job (boss said I was overqualified). Now with my own business I use the degrees to help my customers in the fishing industry plan for the future. Two weeks ago I had to tell them to save their money as the chinook runs from 2015 and 2016 from NW Washington to SW Oregon are gone due to ocean conditions affecting marine invertebrates. Coho are gone next year for the same reason. Two years ago I told them how good this summer would be in NW Washington. For this info they buy my products and provide me a living. A college education can be worth it if you use it right
