I reached the same conclusion recently. I'm about the same age, but instead of going through college to get there, I was one of the early "bootcamp" grads (though I took issue with my so-called bootcamp). Yes, we should be glad to have these high paying jobs doing knowledge work. But there is something thoroughly dissatisfying about writing another meaningless CRUD app that spins the cogs just a little faster. More efficiently? Who knows. Besides, it probably does one of three things: ecommerce, ads, or glorified coupons. What's the point? Coding isn't the right career for me, either. I do think it's a useful tool, but I think I've got to do something else with my life. I wish you luck figuring what that something else is, as well.
