IMHO if you are getting post-highschool education, and you are lucky enough to be crazy passionate about something, do that, but if not, get a difficult specialized degree or skilled trade. And then, on the side, never stop reading about everything else. Having a rare skill is always an ace in your hand. I think there is less value in learning a bunch of things superficially, because you can do that on your own (and I think everyone should).
