But as for degrees, they're remarkably useful things and NOT for getting hired. I think every developer / technician should have one, not necessarily relating to his field, because it provides a depth of perspective that you simply won't have otherwise.
That "spark"? 100% right. But I'm not sure you *learn* it, I think it's either there or it's not. It's a shame to go into a profession you're not interested in.
