cross-posted from: linux.community/post/4052877 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?

Honestly never. The problem is that if you have other stuff in your life that takes priority, like a family, you might not pull your weight OR you might not understand how to manage time. This can happen to people of any ages; kids with family issues or disruption in their home life see a dip in school performance, for instance.
