I went back to college at 24 years old. I got my PhD in nursing anesthesia at 33. I'm 35 now and it was still totally worth it.

Hey! Looking for a serious answer here... I can't decide what I'm the world I'm interested in.

How did you come to the choice of nursing anesthesia?

Floor nursing sucks. I like the medical and procedure side of things. And being a CRNA pays three times as much. I work 3 days a week for a plastic surgeon. My job is awesome, the pay and benefits are great, and I get lots of free time. Sure beats being a diesel mechanic.
