I think it is the easiest time in the world to shape your career in the right direction.Nowadays, with all the free education and information you can get online it should be the easiest time in the world to shape your career in the right direction.
I've wasted most of my 20s not pursuing a career after quitting finance. I'd be so depressed if it was 1970 and my only options were to work in a field, go to the factory, or join the military. As you said, there's just a ridiculous amount of opportunity. Anyone can study something online, often free, and be making 6 figures within a few years without even going into student loan debt.
The amount of opportunity is so stupid big and most people are still stuck in a 1970s mindset that they think these opportunities are scams.
