I'm curious...which fields are the best to get degrees in? For instance, business degrees are a dime a dozen nowadays. They're not the "big deal" they used to be. For someone in this day and age that is wanting to finish college and get their degree, what would you suggest?

Too much of a generalization.
Accounting, Finance, and MIS for instance are often labeled as B.S.B.A (Bachelor of Science in Business Admin), and they are very useful degrees in getting a job especially accounting. Economics is often part of the business school too, another useful degree.
There is no best degree. Just what degree is best for you. Not everyone is cut out to work in Big Data or become a petroleum engineer.
I like MIS, I still want to finish my business degree, but it will probably never happen. Finance 3310 is a weed out class and I even looked up reviews on professors at other schools and for an INTRODUCTORY course, everyone says it's hard. I probably will never be able to finish it.
As for the "best degree" there is none. I have seen people that are successful in liberal arts and business and have seen people fail in liberal arts and business. It's all about networking these days it seems and how you present yourself that matters.

Engineering or any professional degree that leads to licensure.

Various engineering and science degrees, accounting always seems to have a demand.
However, I think just as important as the degree is your extra-curricular activity - networking, internships, etc.

MD by far. You make boatloads of $, can get a job anywhere at the drop of a hat, and if you like are probably able to work part time, albeit for less money, but still more than the rest of us.
Job security is impeccable and respect and prestige speaks for itself.
This is because the medical association limits the number of degreed doctors so competition of 'a job' is nil, though of course there is competition for better jobs.
Every other degree you can get is various degrees of crapshoot.
Pinkmani's list is pretty good though.
