Frank, you have fogotten about everything else.
Yes, it's true that the outlook for studying music may not be TOO bright...
Name me one thing that you can Study that will gurantee you a high paying job.
THERE IS NONE!>>
Medicine, law, engineering, computer science, business, almost any non-education and art based field. Isn't that about it for major college study? Now, nothing is guarenteed in life as we all know. The above fields will ensure you are in a better position to make a decent salary, assuming you are not lazy and attempt to secure employment. FYI, medicine and law fall by the wayside in regards to money making these days compared to the past. Yes, the salary is nice (usually 6 figs), but a moderate to high end business man will make much more. The sad reality is that you can work at Starbucks full time and make more money, with benefits than most giging musicians. That is not a joke. I don't have an idea to what point you were trying to make with your post, as it is off base and is not a valid statement. Espresso anyone? 
The only thing I assumed from your post was that you are most likely a high school/college student or work in the arts. Forgotten what? I live in the fray. I perform for a living and love it. I question only the financial validity of becoming a pro and the horrible prospects for a future to MAKE A LIVING in music. Remember, music is romantic and fun until you wake up and realize one day you have a family to support, medical problems, financial debt, haven't had a vacation in years, work 7 days a week, no date lol. You get the point I hope. BTW.... I LOVE MUSIC!
