Re: Knowledge for it\'s own sake
If I can offer some further (advice?) experience. And I am sure you have heard this before. It is a lot easier to go back (continue) to classes when you are younger than older. Life gets in the way so to speak (and we get lazier or at least slower) . Especially if you marry, kids, careers, other “hobbies”.
Learning is never ever a waste.
The few grad courses I took for the “heck of it” I took more seriously and did a better job at them than my undergrad years.
Plus, practically speaking, you never know what might happen at or because of a class. You meet someone who might redirect your career - just perhaps meeting a new friend in life - whatever, see a posting for another class that leads to something else.
The journey is half the fun of life, I think.
