Please note that this is an article about average people, making the headline entirely sensationalistic ("no sign"?). The average engineer has a set of skills that can easily be plugged directly into a corporate widget machine to profitable ends, and is paid accordingly. The average "fluffy major" has a set of skills inapplicable to much of anything. But what happens if you stop thinking about the average? I don't know the answer to that, but I do know plenty of fluffy major C-levels and directors. But I also like JonnieCache's take on it in these comments; fluffy majors know better than to care about such base needs as material wealth!
