In assessing whether to go back to school, there are an awful lot of variables to consider. When I was in my early 30s, I had accumulated enough to send myself through dental school - I had an idea that I would like to re-train myself as an orthodontist. Fortunately, my Father talked things through with me - giving up a highly lucrative sales carreer and income, where I had already accumulated a sizable nest egg by my late 20s - and trade that in for a big maybe. I chose to stick to sales - and am I ever glad I did.

Schooling, and the time and money it takes - especially specialization should be closely analyzed before embarking. An older Brother of mine eventually became a doctor, but was at such an advanced age and so broke when he became one, it probably wasn't worth the effort/cost - when breaking it down.
