As for the forcing hobbies into income, I see where you're coming from, but it is a balance. I don't want to stifle my passions, but I also want to enjoy what I'm doing more. I'm just a mechanically minded person. I think deep down I am ok with not working with cars, but I'd like to engineer some sort of machine.

Anthropology would be really interesting... but what the hell would I do with that degree?
Yea that's the catch... although you could probably get a nice grant for niche research like the study of modern cultural phenomena, for instants: how social networking influences cross generational communication, or how World of Warcraft effects breeding patterns of adolescents
