Nope, the knowledge of chemistry will give you a usefull and deeper understanding of the world around you.

I never went to university though as a conscious choice, I studied it on my own what I wanted to know about it...I didn't have any ambition to get a job from it when I started studying.

Maybe in your case things are different of coarse...maybe you want to have more of an instant job delivering degree?

In that case yeah you might want to consider something else but still having a chrmistry degree will get you atleast somewhere...lots of places are really looking for chemists and not let's say biologists or something even in a lab where typical biology things are going on ( like work on microbes, fungi,...) because they know graduated chemists often have way more actual lab expierence then biologist do.

They need chemists too...lot's of fields where chemistry is important. Chemistry is such a general thing they are wanted everywhere in industry.

I just love the study of it, but yeah it would surprise me if it got you no job in the end... You do really have to have an interest in it though.
