/lit/ - Literature

Yo, I'm 20 y/o and I'm thinking of studying philosophy mainly because it's the only field that actually interests me. Thing is, obviously this degree is useless but I'm thinking it'll be alright because I could just work a min wage job and do some self-made shit on the side (music, yt videos, drawing, filmmaking, anything that fulfills me) and then hopefully start a career off of that.
I used to study cs but I dropped out after one semester because all the students were filthy bugmen and the thought of sitting in front of a computer screen for 8+ hours a day working on a project that I'm not even interested in plus all the shitty internships I'd have to do just to climb up the career ladder would kill my soul.
What should I do bros? Go for what interests me or for what pays?

this is when you start doing your own shit. Go see if you can make valuable content off of shit that you like. start a yt channel, a podcast, learn a skill that you can apply etc. We are lucky that we are not 100% dependent on employers to make money when we have the internet. Use it.
