Question:
I know the essence of language learning should be to learn a language you find would be enjoyable to you but, living in America with Japanese language skills...I think its almost useless unless you have a nice degree in computer science and can move there. Without a good job, it is not a helpful language here is it? (Not that I mind striving for a degree in computer science).
Answer:
Learning a new language today is not just a hobby but also an investment. Some people study Mandarin because they plan on doing long term business in China. Some study Spanish for the same reason. So if you plan on studying Japanese, make sure you'll be able to make advantage of it in the future.
You see, nowadays doing things for hobby's or recreational sake is not practical anymore unless you're filthy rich. It's like I'm going to study medicine for recreation.
