I wanted to play in the NFL when I was a kid, but no colleges were recruiting 5'9" 180 lb. mediocre linemen. In my early 20's I wanted to be a chef. I got a degree from Le Cordon Bleu and jumped in. The pay of a restaraunt manager does not balance the frustrations or long hours. I recently went back to school and got my RN license and currently work at the Mayo Clinic. Excellent decision, a very rewarding career with good pay. There are some moments where I wish I wasn't there (code brown), but the pros outweigh the cons by a considerable margin.
