Same here. Apparently the job market for philosophers, especially in academia, is terrible because there is a glut of philosophy PhDs and tenured philosophy professors stick around for decades. So most philosophy professors are associate professors who get paid a couple of thousand per semester. Can't imagine living on that in NY. Imagine having a doctorate and making $6K per year. So I double majored in computer science and philosophy like a lot of my class mates.
