Yeah, me, too!
In 1983.
So, instead of wasting my time I got a *great job* in Corporate America where I stayed for 20+ years while I raised a family. Was I successful? Moderately. Would there have been more opportunities with a completed degree? Certainly. Did I get to *follow my dreams*? Nope. Had mortgages to pay and kids to feed.
Now they're grown, I'm divorced and back in school. For no better reason than I can. Because these days, I'm the only one responsible for and dependent on me and I want to.
Echo34, the *practical* side of me says - finish out a degree program while you have funding available for it. Even if you don't really know what you want to do with it or what you want to *be* when you grow up. It's tough to pay for it yourself. The *everything's a learning experience* side of me says - do what you want. It'll all work out.
Good luck!
ps - I have no regrets. I did what I did and I am where I am. Whatever decision you make - OWN it.
