[quote=Anonymous]Can you let us in on the dead end industry you've been in for 25 years? Even knowing that you want to do a 180 away from whatever that is, will help get an idea of your skillset. By "starting college" I'm assuming you mean an undergraduate degree? Would you consider yourself technology savvy?

I'm trying to consider the positions where you can really maximize a 4 year Bachelors degree (if that is what you're intending), which in my mind are things like web developers, IT positions, even some medical like physicians assistants. There is such a broad range of things - as PP mentioned do you have an interest or strength in science? I was just reading an article about PAs (phys assts) and how they are virtually like an MD but with much less schooling (think you can be one after a 4 year degree? someone correct me if I'm wrong?) and they actually make pretty decent money, median salary of just under 100K.

DH is a corporate attorney (Bachelors + 3 years law school) and I am an Epidemiologist at a consulting firm (Bachelors + 2 year Masters). Together we make about 225K gross but we also spent plenty of money and time on school and that doesn't sound like what you're looking for.[/quote]
