[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]+1 starting a business, law school, +1 MBA[/quote]

Forgot to add that these all require a lot of hard work, focus, and often financial investment--as you probably know. It's a good idea to make sure that your ADHD is treated well first if you choose any of these paths.[/quote]

FWIW I'm very good at focusing on things that interest me and that I care about. I tested extremely highly and have generally done well in school, although I tended to be a slacker and didn't work that hard. So, I think I could handle the workload, I guess I just wonder if that's the right path or if it's too late, at my age, to start something like this. I've considered law school but have heard lawyers dont make much money, and not sure what I would study in business school, but I have been considering them.[/quote]

OP, never too late to start! Get going. Plenty of people restarting their careers and lives midlife due to divorce and/or bankruptcy, without the cash to make it happen.  Have you considered becoming a Master Gardener? A landscape business or working with a high-end nursery might keep you moving, outside, and it's not a boring office or retail job. Maybe you could use your vacation money to meet with a Life Coach to help you focus on the next chapter of your life and the steps you need to take to make it happen. There will never be a shortage for CyberSecurity jobs, so if you have 14,000 tabs open and can manage a master's program, that will get you caught up with your peers quickly. Within the CyberSecurity, maybe field you can find a position that allows you work on projects so it's not the same thing day in and day out. [/quote]
