What all careers can you get from going to school in philosophy? Specifically, thank you o' so much!

Keep going to school, like law school, after you get the philosophy degree.

other than teaching and starting your own church, maybe some work in a think tank writing position papers.

Other than that, get a masters in something less "liberal arts" or law school.

A study shows that philosophy majors score higher on the LSAT ( Law school admissions test) than any other major. So Law school would be one of the options.

My office manager at a pool company has a degree in philospophy. So does the guy who takes pictures at Wal-mart. Frankly, a philosophy degree is useless. If you want to go on to law school or something, that may be an option. But to have a career in philosophy unless you are going into teaching it- good luck.
