My old boss said it best to me a few years ago.
"The days of working for one company for your whole life, and retiring with a gold watch are over. Today, the name of the game is building a resumé impressive enough that when you find yourself looking for some reason, you won't go hungry"
When you find yourself looking in a few years, what's going to look better on a resumé? Dedication in a mid level job, or a degree/diploma? I'm not saying the education is worth more than hands on experience in the real world (I don't think it is, but that's another story), but like it or not that's what many employers like to see, and look for first.
If you don't need the cash today, then don't let your studies fall behind. That degree or diploma is worth FAR more on your resumé in the future.
