It's better to have it then not have it...know what I mean? Once you get it it's something that can never be taken from you.
Some personal advice: I stopped a couple credits shy of my Bachelors. I needed a break and just wasn't sure what direction I wanted to go. In the time I stopped going to school I got married and divorced. Got married again and had two kids. I tried to go back to school a few years ago and finish but had to drop out due to personal reasons. I keep telling myself one day I'll finish. I know deep down that it will probably never happen. You don't want to be 36 years old working a dead end job wishing you had your degree.

And oh yeah, definitely don't go into creative writing to make money. Go in the other direction that you mentioned.

But maybe Industrial Design would be better.

the better question is why shouldn't you get a Bachelors degree?

I have to second what the above poster said, man. I have an MFA in Creative Writing, and it is officially the least commercially viable terminal degree in the Humanities...they made a point of telling us that at orientation. I can only guess that the Bachelor-level degrees in Creative Writing are no better. Pursue a CW degree ONLY if you must write. It sounds like Industrial Design is closer to what you want.

Honestly because I know a lot of people with BS Degrees that are still working at McDonalds.

Bite the bullet and do it.
I am 35 and after being a nurse for 10 years I am going back for a finance/ accounting degree. It hurts sometimes, but I will be better off one way or another, in 2 years when I am done. |

Man, if nothing else, and if taken seriously, a four-year liberal arts education will benefit YOU. I would NEVER take back my four-year education. It helped lend to my being an overall better critical thinker. In addition, many jobs will take that person with a a B.A. or B.S. over someone who does not. |
