Can you find employment and have them contribute to the cost? Many, many companies are now providing education reimbursements.
...
Is that plausible?

This is a decision you have to make because you want to. I'll be quite honest with you, you'll spend a significant part of your career making up the money for the additional degrees (if you actually ever do), but if this is what you want and you can afford to hang in there - go for it!
Valhall: But I can tell you that two of the most enjoyable classes I had while in college were History of Science I and II.

I have heard of companies that will sometimes cover employee's graduate studies, but I seriously doubt they would pay for the undergrad in physics/history.

I am, as I have posted elsewhere, an electrical engineering student. I have just begun my final year of my undergraduate program. I am strongly considering taking more schooling after this, because I like learning so much.
Luxifero: Where in Canada are you, if you don't mind me asking
whaaa: Get some business courses in with your other areas of study.
I love watching Toonami and Adult Swim on Cartoon Network, I love the NFL and college football
my favorites types of movies are sci-fi movies (like Star Wars)
I enjoy video games, love to read (particularly on the Internet),
and I consider Anna Kournikova and Tara Reid the two hottest women on the planet.
After all, with my engineering training, I can pick up most scientific texts and understand fairly well what is going on. Would it be better to simply enter the work force and just buy lots of books and read them on my own, rather than obtain formal training?
