A career to fall back on?

[Dmzg0310]

I want to start my jewelry business and ideally launch it by June 2026.

I currently don’t have much work experience since I’ve been in and out of jobs since graduating with a psychology degree (personal training, marketing, admin, teaching). I’m looking for jobs right now, ideally in a corporate setting like marketing, sales, management, etc.

I’m wondering if it would be good to go back to school and get a diploma for new media & web design so that if my business does not work, I can fall back on this degree.

It’s an 18 month program and $18,500, 9 months of school plus a 6 month internship.

It would be nice to have that under my belt so that I can for example work as a UX designer and if the business doesn’t work out or it takes a long time to develop, at least I will have a UX job.

What do you think? Thanks in advance!
