There's a Guardian article about how surprisingly useful a philosophy degree can be and the applications it has sans teaching philosophy. Of course, it was written in like 2007, before the current fiscal fucktastrophe.

I just remember it because the main subject of the article essentially says stuff like:
>$90k starting, any job I want
and looks like a fuckwit.

so you need to be black to qualify for affirmative action, then a philosophy degree is useful.

Of course any degree works the same.

If you're intelligent, creative and lucky your degree is irrelevant.
