If you were 36 with no student loan debt in an IT job that paid 75K with only 50K left on your mortgage, would you take on the massive debt it takes to become a dentist?
If your job was interesting and stable, but not particularly challenging (I have at least one 8hr shift per week with absolutely nothing to do), would you take that risk?
I'm reading stories of people who can't afford their student loan payments and my life is fairly comfortable right now, financially speaking. I just have that part of me that still really wants to be a dentist and I don't know how to reconcile this dreams vs debt conundrum.
