I really hope this thread ain't a wind up, LP22 please ACK.
From a business world perspective, if you want to be seen as less of an employment risk in whatever you choose to do with your life then you must be able to show you can finish something big-ish, be it a degree, elite sportsman, or CPL - just finish it, that's all.
And if things are looking grim, there is always IT.
Good luck.
