      Nah mate, you wouldn’t believe how many early 30s and end 20s start their IT studies over here. If you like it and you’re into it, you can still rock it. Think about how many years of work you have left and take 2-5 years off that it takes to switch … I think its still worth it in the long run isn’t it?

        I don’t know. I have a full time job and have to pay off a house for the next ~30 years. There’s no room to follow other professions.
