That isn't just in the US. Today if you teach yourself how to operate and run a server, and how to debug it but you don't have a degree in Computer Science, you don't qualify.

I wouldn't put it as "the accountants took over", but rather "logically handicapped morons took over". I am a technician, and I am teaching new ENGINEERING MANAGERS-IN-TRAINING from SK how do home appliances work. When I asked "What engineering degree do you have? Electrical or Mechanical?", they told me that they aren't engineering graduates.

And they get paid more than me, have a higher corporate rank, yet they don't even know what a bloody magnetron is and why it is dangerous to open a microwave up outside of a workshop without proper gear. Sometimes it even amazes me why do they get a place telling me what to do when they don't even know the most basic science behind everyday electronics.

Most of all, you have to be disciplined and you have to save, even if you hate our current financial system. Because if you don't save, then you're guaranteed to end up with nothing.
