I dropped out after my first year of law school, am I bitter about the $50K that I spent? Not really- I knew what I was signing up for and the experience taught me many things, the most important being that you should chase passions instead of money. If you're smart, driven and working on something you're passionate about, odds are you'll succeed- if you're chasing prestige or money in an industry you hate, your chances of success (or at least your satisfaction with your career choices) decline precipitously. Do I wish I learned this without spending $50K? Sure, but what's done is done, no use crying about it.
