I'm career changing and going back to school. I should be done with my CS degree in two years. While I'm finishing school, though, I'm setting up my life to be a serial founder. I'll be 35 at that time.
I know that's breaking the mold, but I've had some time to set things up:
When I'm done with school, I will make a decent living working part time.
I have moved to Silicon Valley.
I will have my team together.
We won't be betting the farm while iterating through startup ideas.
I'm sure it won't all be a bed of roses, but I think there's something to be said for taking time to prepare for a life of uncertainty.
Finishing my degree has been a personal goal for a while. I also know that I have a few gaps in my self-education that I want to fill in before I take the plunge.
That being said, I'm taking the summer off school to work on a project.
