I wanted to become an auto mechanic since I enjoyed driving and working on cars. However, I ended up going into health care field. Came out of university at 22 with no debt (tuition was only $2-3000/year back in early 90's and lived at home), traveled a little and have been working for a same company for past 17 years. Working as a middle manager, you get crap from bottom and top, but at the end of the day, I go home happy and content.
My wife went to university and got the same degree as myself after our both kids started school, giving up her nursing job (no debt also upon graduation) and ironically, is working for same company as me. Not too late to start a new career, but financially, it can be tight at times.
