Some may say I "wasted" my 20s- changing majors, dropping out of school, going back, trying 3 different careers, multiple countries. When I turned 30, I was in deep debt (student loans + credit cards), a year or so into my 4th career and a few years into a marriage that I couldn't admit wasn't going to work out. Some of my friends were years into their careers, financially successful, some already had kids, I felt like I was woefully behind and would never catch up.
Fast forward and by my late 30s I'm debt free, make more money that I ever imagined, in a wonderful 2nd marriage, my 4th career turned out to be perfect for me and everything is on track. A lot can change in a few years, if things are not working now, doesn't mean they won't work in the future. Explore, learn about yourself and others, take calculated risks and keep going.
