[QUOTE="MBowman325, post: 1362678, member: 6825"] When I was in school about 8 years ago, there were about 20% of my classmates over 35 and about 10% over 60. When I was working on my MBA, those numbers went up a bit. If you want to go back to school, go do it. If you want your family to quit giving you grief and you have the time and money plus a little inclination, then go do it. If you don't want to do it, then don't - it sounds like you've done well with what you've got. For what it's worth, I actually went to school for a couple of semesters with my Mom. She was working on finishing up her nursing degree (to be an RN) while I was an undergrad. We'd catch up sometimes between classes and grab a bite. There was a 60-something year old gal that I was in class with that worked the floor at the plant I was a co-op at. There was a guy was probably in his 80s or 90s that was in a class of mine as well - cool guy. Age didn't matter then, most of the 'old folk' were cool people. :) Edit: Be careful of the school you pick though... That one place in Norman is weird..... Pretty sure there's something in the water.... [/QUOTE]
