Personally, I started with an B.Sc. Astrophysics, finished that. Realized that it may take a while before I could get in a job related to an area that I'm interested in. I went back and completed an B.Sc. Computer Sciences.
I've typically justified the two degrees by explaining that physics taught me how to learn, how to break apart a problem, and computer sciences provided the foundational basics as to how to associate abstract concepts into software. It was certainly an experience!
