Life is good and you can do anything you want to do, 2 pieces of advice:-
1. As others have stated timing is everything.
2. Do not "DO NOT" get yourself into vasts amounts of debt for this career. Its a great job but not worth paying vast amounts of your $$$/month to the bank. You must have a life.
