Welcome to the real world. I have a degree in Criminal Justice, never held a job in my major, but I now run a RADAR site in Latin America. I like it pays good and it's fun. First off forget money, you're young you need a career. Figure out what interests you then go after an entry level job in that career field. The secret is to do more than they ask, that coupled with your degree will get you promoted. If all you want to do is work 9-5 and do the minimum to get your check, degree or no degree you'll never get ahead. I work with other guys running RADAR sites in different locations, 26, 27, 28 years old, high school education, 3 years USAF RADAR and they are making 100K tax free. The secret, they do what it takes 24/7/365 to get the job done. A degree is not a key to making big money, hard work, desire, and talent is.
