Even though I didn’t get a business degree, I enjoyed learning about economics.

The remark contrasts formal credentials with genuine intellectual curiosity. By noting he lacked a business degree yet “enjoyed learning about economics,” the speaker suggests that practical understanding—how money, markets, and incentives work—can be pursued outside a prescribed academic track. It also implies that creative or non-business careers still benefit from economic literacy: budgeting, negotiating, valuing work, and understanding the broader forces shaping an industry. The tone is modest and reflective, framing education as something broader than a diploma and emphasizing the value of self-directed learning and cross-disciplinary interests.
