75 years of life. You are on your own after 20th. You are left with 55 years. You would not want to work after 60th. You’ve got 40 working years.
Every working year is 2.5% of your life. Every year you spend doing what you don’t love is a BAD deal. So why not risk the first 5 to 10 working years testing your interests and potential. If you get lucky - nothing better than that. If not, you didn’t lose much. In most cases you’ll end up becoming more employable.
