I regret nothing really because I figure on a different path I wouldn't have my wife and daughter. So I'm happy.
But I do wish I had tried my hand at radio right out of high school instead of waiting until my late 20s. By the time I changed careers I couldn't give it enough time to get to a level where I could make a decent living and provide for my family. I was getting some traction but it just wasn't happening fast enough as I moved into my mid 30s. If I started earlier I think I could have done it long-term.
But I still consider it my paid hobby - doing a bit of it here and there. I've broadcasted games (lacrosse) from the Ed Whalen booth at the Dome - if that's as far as I ever go with it - I'll consider it worth it.
