back to school

I get this question alot. How did you decide to leave your career and go back to school? The answer is a long personal one. However, I will provide the negatives here that I had sent a friend contemplating the idea:

For me, it was a good choice. I'm not sure if the move would benefit others. Your return on investment may not be high. School can be really boring at times. You will miss that paycheck and the perks that come with it. You will feel old compared to your fellow students. Yet, you won't feel socially accepted by the professors who are more similar in age.

However, one of my justifications for going back to school is that my working career has been a very long one and pretty diverse.
