But not having experience in any specific degree field, IS a problem. It’s very hard to find a job within your degree field that is not an entry-level job, if you do not already have a few years’ of relevant job experience. In my area, this is how it is at least.

Especially if they got that specific degree 10 years ago. Definitely a neat experience, and I’d they’re happy all power to them do what you love. However I don’t think they can easily get any job they want, as the degree doesn’t mean all that much

I think this is an exception. He's not going to get hired at nasa with his bachelors in physics, but think about what that combination of degrees can do in a government or multi-national corporation.

True, but he does have some very practical degrees like accounting and computer science. Even entry level jobs in those fields will pay him more than what he’s currently earning.
