don’t give me the it’s never too late bs. Life happens, people have jobs, debts and rent to pay.
Going back to school when you’re employed means debt, earning way less or nothing during your bachelor or master, stress, opportunities you’re not aware of because you’re simply not at your workplace anymore, unpaid overtime during those 2 to 3 years… the money you lose is more than what the bachelor / accreditation costs.
When does it start being a stupid idea? Is it when you’re 30? 40? 50?
At what age is it stupid to start exercising?
Schooling is always a sacrifice of your time, energy, and money; it’s only “stupid” if the reward isn’t worth the risk. Age isn’t a part of that equation.
If you really want to answer this question for yourself, pick a goal and figure out a way to get it. Make a plan. How much money do you need? Can you save up before? Pick up extra shifts, get a second job.
If you decide it’s worth it, do everything you can to make it happen. Otherwise you’re just making excuses for yourself.
