    Perhaps get a PhD in something that (heavily) uses math, such as Physics or some aspects of Chemistry? Similar to CS, it might be better professionally to work in areas where CS is a tool rather than the product. If you can make math (or code) appear, than these associated areas should advance a bit more quickly.

    People do humanities PhDs without much expectation of a job using it afterwards.

    This is good advice. Universities as a place of teaching and research are going to disappear.
