“Worth it” is relative.

To some - worth it will mean happy earning 12-15k forever, trading time for money doing salaried GP work.
To some - worth it is opening a chain and relaxing
To some - worth it is rising up the ranks to be an expert in whatever area, teaching, administration, be HOD / DMS

So yes, whether it’s worth it or not depends on how much you think it’s worth.
Consider your options and speak to people from all areas, not just those who have escaped.
