I sometimes buy things, put them on the shelf and think, “well, somebody will have to move that when I’m dead.”

It sounds like you are on a good path. You definitely don’t need a degree to have an opinion, in fact sometimes such clouds your judgment.

I have those exact same thoughts! Not sure what that says about us...:-)

And yes, degrees can often do more harm than good. Have you read "Disciplined Minds" by Jeff Schmidt? The subtitle of the book says it all: "A Critical Look at Salaried Professionals and the Soul-Battering System that Shapes Their Lives."
