Yes, usually it is. I think mathematics Ph.D.'s pull in the most money
on average. Next are things like Psychology, Computer Science, etc. No
label is very useful when individuals demand individuality, which is a
good thing. Someone with a Ph.D. in English can be flipping burgers,
writing best selling novels, or working for the CIA... 

As far as marriage for money, I agree with your assertions below about
common qualities. I know there are only a few out there who would compat
with me at acceptable levels for an entire lifetime, who would be able
to grow and let grow, etc. But, I do know they are out there. Lo, I have
many years now before desiring marriage. Just paying off debt now before
entering graduate school... Of course, dating would not be bad at all,
but the wind does not blow at my command, else where is the challenge?
