Although my passion is to go physiotherapy or geriatric, its going to be tough. Best i can think of is to go on a massage/sports massage therapy course to aid in relieving pain on others.
I started my working life at 30, don’t ask me why
Completed my distance learning IT degree at 34

Just do it bro if got no family commitment yet. Yolo.

For me and you maybe we are driven by salary but for TS she is driven by meaningful work which I totally respect for and hence that advice. Depression and work fatigue is real and different people have different tolerance level. If TS have high stress tolerance then yea, just give up dream and chase $$$ lo.

Anyway to TS regarding studies people change all the time. I was last in cohort in my school during sec school, all sorts of teachers always find me to talk to me about my results, meaning E8, F9 for my science subjects but I’m getting B+ to A for 3 bio 1 physics and 1 chem mods in NUS (taking them as electives) Should throw away the baggage and start learning from scratch again.

Hopefully TS will make a decision she won’t regret.

one thing I must say is that, as we age, our worldview perspectives do change. and with that, our career objectives may change as well. like for eg, when I was in my 20s and mid 30s, i valued $$$ above everything else in a job and hence i chased very hard for it. but when i am older, i don't really place $$ on a pedestal anymore. true that money is very important, but it's not everything. everyone is different. we have different needs and wants and we spend money differently. some are ok with taking the train to work and some want to drive a BMW. so ok lor, u trade ur time, energy, mental well-being emotions and sometimes health for that promotion/more work/$$$$. nothing wrong in that. just be aware that we're all trading something for our jobs.
