Back to school
This is something I have been considering for some time. If I would go back to do what I want, it would take me til I was 60 plus in age. Now people always say one is never to old to do what they want, but I honestly do not want to start a career that late. I am exploring other avenues that may enable me to work as something close to this. I fully respect, and value, anyone who goes to school and earns a degree. I also feel that peoples' life experiences, as well as the things they learn on their own, can be just as helpful. The reality is that people look for the degree. Have any of you gone back to school later in life?

Re: Back to school
I went back to school in my mid-30s. Fortunately I've already established myself in my career (I was a start from the bottom kind of guy) and it was pretty tough balancing school with work at first. Once I got that part down, I actually really enjoyed it. Remembered why I liked school and learning as a kid.

Re: Back to school
I wish I had the time or motivation to go back to school. There's so many things I'd love to try. But my 3 year old takes up all my time which is fine by me.
