It's true you won't be able to jump into a high paying job but I wouldn't say it's going to limit your chances of getting one. Liberal Arts is a general education on a variety of subjects rather than one particular subject. You can - if you decide to get into it more - continue to a B.A. or B.S Liberal Arts degree with Social Sciences, Economics, History, Literature or Psychology (among others) as a more defined major. With a BA you could then teach any of those subjects.
These days, employers say they look for skills rather than degrees - good communication skills first, next - initiative, a good work ethic, a team player (although I don't see how they can determine the last 2 from an interview other than taking your word on it) plus you must have good critical thinking and analytical skills for quick problem solving and also good interpersonal skills. The National Assoc of Colleges & Employers (NACE) says these are just the kind of abilities honed in the L.A. coursework and that LA graduates have an advantage over other applicants because of their knowledge on many subjects. They can work in a variety of industries and are capable of entry level - all the way up to management positions. That of course depends on the individual (NOT your degree). Bottom line - if you're passionate about learning and enthusiastic in your job interviews you will be able to find a good job at a stable work environment. And according to NACE having the ability to confidentially articulate your skills is a hallmark of Liberal Arts training.
Salary and earning potential are strictly dependent on the type of field you are in, your position within that field, the institution you work for, experience, expertise, personal abilities, critical thinking and problem solving abilities, dedication and commitment toward ones work, and more. In other words, there is no standard salary particular to an associates degree in psychology, or any other type of degree. Thus, it is not solely the degree or major that determines a salary; it's more dependent on the individual who holds the degree.
In order to determine that, you would half to specify which program of study the associates was taken in. In other words, the salary for someone with a degree in communications, will be quite different than one who holds a degree as a registered nurse. Once you indicate the specific field, then according to the U.S. Department of Labor of Labor the estimated mean annual wage can be obtained.
