    Go for it Shakey! I think its great, too many folks get side tracked by other things in their life. I started my career late so I had the chance to really understand what I wanted out of life and a career before I ventured into getting the education and training needed. I'm happy where I am even though I could make a lot more money, and have a lot easier caseload practicing in the private sector. I think another factor comes into play also. To this day have other career field instrests and have considered going back to school so I could switch fields, simply because sometimes I want a new and different kind of challenge in my life. On a related note: I was reading an article the other day that was discussing the impact that living longer will have on us. This futurist believes that people will HAVE TO HAVE two careers over their life spans in order to support themselves into their old age! AHHHHHH, can you imagine working 60 years?!
