So here's the deal. I'm almost 30, I make no money, and I'm kind of miserable at my job. I had no clue what I wanted to do with my life when I graduated high school, I had no idea when I graduated college, and I still have no idea. I'm thinking Grad School - probably a terrible idea, right?
I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a BA in Psychology from a not very highly ranked liberal arts college (higher than 50, lower than 100). I picked Psychology because I needed a major and I liked the classes, but I decided quickly that I didn't want to be a therapist. I was told that it didn't really matter what I majored in, as long as I had a degree, and I actually believed it.
So, I graduated jobless, directionless, and penniless, so I went back to a summer job as a teller so that I could pay my student loans. Over 7 years (and 4 low level positions) later, I am still in at the bank, now as a pseudo administrative assistant (who is bored out her mind most days).
I'm not one of those people who has to make a ton of money to feel successful, but I want to be able to live my life without fear of being able to pay my rent. I'm single, so I have to support myself for the immediate future. I want to be able to travel.
So after all that, what is my question? Well, I'll take any advice that anyone can offer. I still don't know what I want to do with life, but I'm starting to think that I will never figure it out. I cannot really afford to do a ton of undergraduate prereqs unless I get a better job. I'm willing to go into some debt for grad school, but not so much that I will be paying it off for decades.
I was thinking of going for an MBA - not because I have a great love of business, but because it seems like it could be useful. I considered a MLIS, but just about everything I have read says that it is not a great field to get into right now. Honestly, I'm thinking of spending the next year researching grad school options just so I can find something that might eventually get me somewhere.
