Why not change majors to something relevant to your goals that could help you? For example, go for a business major and an accounting minor, or something that seems completely unrelated but could be helpful, like History/Philosophy.
I don't know about your university, but mine was a great place to meet people and network; you never know who will be doing what or who will know what in the future. It's not all about the classrooms, for better or for worse.
Additionally, your professors, if you establish good relationship with them, can be great sources for both recommendations (for job applications) and also for advice/contacts in the future.
(I may have a biased perspective because $60,000 isn't even the cost of two years at my university, so it seems like a fairly low-cost investment.)
So basically, take your time, make connections, and prepare for what you know you want to do. It will probably pay off in the long run, despite the stories of people like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates.
