I went back to college in 2021 hoping to ride the recession recovery up with a new degree, got a 2 year Networking degree and I caught the tail end of the Great Resignation and snagged a pretty good job immediately after graduation.

I highly recommend going back whenever you feel up for it. Going into it when your even just a few years older means you can better appreciate the opportunities available to you, plus it's a chance to do things you might not otherwise have done. For example, I stumbled into joining student government, and that was a blast traveling all over to visit other colleges for legislative meetings on the college's dime. I made several friends and generally came out a better person

You could even do the crazy thing I did which is going back even though you really should wait, because my wife was pregnant! I started a semester the day after we returned from the hospital after my youngest child's birth. I'm...not doing that again haha
