This may sound crazy, but throw in some Spanish classes. Hear me out. I'm not even talking about a minor -- just enough to be able to hire Spanish speaking people and communicate with them.

If you finish with that BA, you could go a lot of different directions: running a small business, helping mom and pop joints stay above water as IT needs dominate their inventory control and lives, running a successful home business based on a future artistic endeavor, on and on.

Spanish is coming up a lot more in small business America. Being bilingual means opening your business to a larger, family-oriented population that can hardly wait to tell others that you listen to them.

Besides, honkies are fickle. Being able to work with customers and employees in both languages will give you a stable space for growth.

Then you can have a mid-life crisis in a decade or two -- and take off to Mexico to visit former employees for a few months.

Monolingualism is overrated. Small business is always underrated.
