You don't need a degree or formal education for most fields (outside of medicine, law, and engineering.) You can make a pretty decent living doing all sorts of things, if you can solve other peoples' problems, get stuff done, and handle pressure. You probably don't learn those things majoring in art history. But you might learn those things working as a janitor while you're paying your way through an art history degree.
