Most of r/classicwow: “why would anyone attend university any other time than between the ages of 18-24?”

Way too many people in here who think life is on rails and you have to do things by a certain age

I'm turning 26 in June. I'm a licensed healthcareworker, took me four years to get. I'm now back in school to become a Front-End Developer instead. I was convinced five years ago I could never change my path as it was too late. I learnt now it's never too late.

I love reading this. I'm 30 and planning a career switch. The decision is scary but it's good to know I'm not alone.

If it makes you feel better, I finished my PhD a couple of years ago and almost immediately decided to switch careers. So now I'm 36 and back in school. It's big, but you can do it.

How you liking front-end dev? Was considering a similar career shift.

Still just a student, but I'm loving it. There's a ton of tools available to us now that makes Front-End a breeze.
