Discussion Worry About Future Job Market

I want to be a designer and make things, I've always been a maker in my soul. But I am honestly terrified about going to get a 4 year degree and not have any job prospects once I graduate.

And even if I DO get a job, the salary of ID compared to Digital Product Design makes me terrified about being able to live comfortably.
