My only advice is to go back to university only if there is a positive pay off down the road. Consider:

1) x = Lost wages for 4 or so years
2) y = Cost of tuition, books, etc.
3) z = Increased salary with degree

"z" must be high enough to offset "x + y" within a reasonable time period. Most people never consider this when starting post-secondary education. Many people have great careers without post-secondary, and as some posters have alluded to, you can move around jobs and industries based on skill sets and experience; degrees are not as important as you move away from your early twenties.
