if you are learning to increase your value in the labor markeplace, then it is an investment and you need to pick something with a low ROI (marketable).
If you are learning for the fun oof it or to make yourself a well rounded person, then it is a hobbie.
Hobbies are for people who can afford them. If you have to borrow money to support your hobbie, you are a moron and your well-rounded education is wasted too.
I'm actually considering getting a 2nd Bachelor's Degree, this time in Sociology. Going through an external degree program at some place like Charter Oak, I should be able to knock it out in 6-9 months. It should give me a bit more cred among the Liberals I often have to deal with.

Didn't realize that article included a review of Worthless when Instapundit linked it.
Here's hoping the book sales bring more toys for the Captain!
