I agree, but sometimes you dont know what you want to do or you feel forced to do something someone else wants you to do. I know all I ever wanted to be was a bum but I went to school and even got my Masters anyway! What a waste of time.You really can make a ton if you're good at it. Especially depending on your specialties and the market you're in. San Fran is a huge market in general, and if she's decent at it, with acceptable pricing, people would go. My only knocks on her are for going to art school first instead of just owning up to what she actually wanted to do. She'd have been a lot better off financially just going to cosmetology school right off the bat.
