Nice bait. Anyway

Not even hit those sweet, sweet mid-career earnings yet.

what do you do for a living? do you have a bsc or an msc?

I'm an accountant. B.Sc, I tried for my M.Sc but failed, turns out Masters degrees are hard.

You'll be safe for life living the dream I guarantee.

asking seriously (don't mean to be rude) - are you disappointed that you're not doing physics? or was this career change your choice?

What about SHTEM... with history?

Nah that's fine. Not really, I new going into physics that I probably wouldn't end up working in physics (although I did near end up there). What you have to understand that is that, you almost certainly aren't going to end up working in the area you did your degree in, not unless you're exceptional. For example go look at the growth rate for chemical engineers in the US, between 2014 and 2024 it's estimated that there will be less jobs created in those 10 years than graduate in a single year. That's true of most STEM subjects, it's not something people on Veeky Forums like to hear, but it's true. Most of us will probably end up code monkeying.

Fell for the JOB JOB JOB MONEY MONEY MONEY! meme, hated the culture in this field, quit. I saved enough money to go back to school for a good long while and I'm thinking about geology, since that's what I enjoy. What are the people and culture like in geology?
