I hate when people say stupid shite like this. If you're mediocre, then yes, choose a field that overpays for mediocrity -- like finance. If you're exceptional or even pretty good, any field can be lucrative.

I would rather her do something she loves and is apparently pretty good at than do something she hates because of the percieved market value of a piece of paper.

What's the value of a landscape architecture degree from Miss St? Because my nephew hasn't even graduated yet and he likely made more than that this year running a part time hard scape business on the weekends because he loves that shite and is good at it.

A degree that "makes money" is such a stupid and false narrative.
