Bachelor's degrees are never worthless- over 50% of job seekers did not complete their degrees, including a high number in the types of professions that require degrees as part of the employment criteria.

Have you considered going for a CFA?

Yes, but I'm already going back to school part-time and either getting Math & CompSci or "Engineering Physics." Easier to get loans and company/tuition reimbursement. Honestly, I'm probably in a decent enough position job and income-wise; I just find it amusing to have been so completely wrong in how I pursued my career goals. Also, live in Omaha; so very little in finance besides Ameritrade headquarters, Stifel Nicolaus branch office and some small asset management firms; so might not necessarily be worth the cash/time investment as compared to other fields. If I had saved enough that I could afford to move, that'd probably be a different story.
