Let me throw out this quote from Scott Adams [1] proposing that being a generalist has a lot of value too. "I succeeded as a cartoonist with negligible art talent, some basic writing skills, an ordinary sense of humor and a bit of experience in the business world. The "Dilbert" comic is a combination of all four skills. The world has plenty of better artists, smarter writers, funnier humorists and more experienced business people. The rare part is that each of those modest skills is collected in one person. That's how value is created." 1. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704101604576247143383496656.html?mod=WeekendHeader_Right http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142405274870410160457624...
