I gave up on college to go to work. Got married, raised 2 kids, buried ny first wife, remarried, and continued to work until the plant closed. Couldn't find a comparable job, and had access to federal education benefits so I went back to school, transferred some of my old college credits, and had an associates degree in 18 months. Then I couldn't get a decent job because I was OVER-qualified. Now I'm over 55, and working for less than $9 an hour with no insurance and no benefits because nobody wants to hire you when you're over 50.
And you want to ask folks like ME for advice? MY advice: follow your heart, and be true to yourself. You'll sleep well at night. Forget about a "career"...saddle tree carvers and buggy whip makers used to think their "careers" would always be in demand, too.
Whatever job you choose, just remember this little ditty:
"Always do your job with plenty of vigor, 'Cause you can ALWAYS be replaced by some other....unfortunate soul." [Usually it's someone younger, and due to their lower level of experience, someone who will work cheaper.]
