Can I make a decent living with my animation degree despite the state of the industry?

I graduated a few years ago with a BFA animation degree. My goal is to be a storyboard artist for TV but due to the state of the industry, that seems to be increasingly more unobtainable.

Basically, I want people to be honest with me. Is it really that hard to make good money with this degree? I know it isn't EASY but is it really so BAD that no matter how hard I work I'm just going to be living with my parents forever unless I switch fields???

If anyone has suggestions on how they have survived independently only possessing an animation degree, I would very much appreciate it. I've been hearing a ton of negative talk here and I'm pretty worried about my future at this point.
