There are careers and then there are careers. Some take an absolute age to even qualify for. Young kids with aspirations to be surgeons or engineers or professors and even lawyers have to bury their noses in mountain upon mountain of books and invest precious years of their lives to acquire the necessary qualifications and career training to carry out these professions. Not that there’s anything wrong at all with any of these career paths, in fact, most if not all are quite well respected…
