My future

Sometimes I feel anxious because I see people around me with having a careers while even though they have are the same age than me. I am ambitious, but I didn't go to University and it feels like an handicap. In my opinion, nowadays, you don't shouldn't have to go to University just for the fact you have for the sake of having been to University. I believe you should only go there if you have a goal (to become doctor, a lawyer, etc). People can make you feel bad for not having been to University but I really think it is a personal choice, and everybody has to should respect it your choice. Anyway, now I have the feeling that at 24 years old, if I want to have a great career, I have to go to Uni, but I already feel ''old.'', I already have a job and a flat, and not I don't have the patience to go and sit in a classroom for the next 3 or 4 years.
So I am wondering then : if I don't have the heart to do it, am I such really as ambitious that as I want to believe ?
What are you ready to do to achieve your goals and what are they ?

I don't know how it is where you live, but here in the States, a college degree is worth less and less these days. There are plenty of college graduates who regret that they spent money on their education. I think you shouldn't let hardship deter you from studying if studying is what you need to do to achieve your goals, but at the same time, you shouldn't go to school just because people tell you that you should. I think you should decide for yourself what's most important to you, and do whatever you have to do to achieve your goals. 24 is still plenty young to go to school - but you'll only be successful in school if you're self-motivated. Decide what's most important to you, first of all! Or that's what I think, anyway. Your English is very good!
