I've looked around and I already figured that out. I plan to earn my four year degree in due time.
I would like to teach english but most places want nothing less than a four year degree.
My second plan is to try starting a small restaurant business in Japan.

Having a degree requirement can make sense (depending on the work field), but I also think (in recent times) employers are using the "you must have a 4 year degree" excuse to narrow down applications to only people with degrees. Even if someone might posses the proper skills without a degree.
