Good stuff and for those who got their degrees at the University of Hard Knocks...that's good shit. It's cheaper and you probably have a better business acumen than most people I know with PhDs!

If nothing else, university taught me how to research and access information, how to stay organized, how to follow through and finish big projects, etc.... More general life stuff than things that would be used directly from the fields studied.
My minor actually came in handy as I ended up as a recording engineer for about 5 years, but as for Zoology, I realized that without going all the way to a PHD, I was about qualified enough to shovel elephant shit! LOL
