<p>Hey guys,</p>
<p>I graduated in 2009 with a bachelor's degree from a known but not top tier school. I did well in school and was very motivated. The job market was pretty much trash and and I worked as a mortgage banker for about 9 months, a credit analyst for 6 months, and a financial analyst for 10 months. I am currently unemployed as I quit these jobs. Although those were my job titles I felt like I was sold on the analyst positions as they were more like a customer service representative. I was not happy working the positions I was in as my expectations were probably too high. I was in significant debt from student loans and that destroyed my confidence immensely and killed my motivation through the years since I have been out. In addition I was confused and lost in life at this time. So my career thus far has been far from stellar. I just turned 26 in February and I wish to turn my life around and get back into the old competitive person I used to be and complete the CFA, CPA, and an MS in accounting program. I chose these as I likely could would not get accepted and cannot afford a top MBA program so I am choosing to attend your standard accredited MS accounting program. If I do all of these things now and attempt to have a successful career going forward at my current age do you feel that I will miss out on anything due to my age? Is it still possible for me to turn my life around and if I work hard at least get into an analytical role that pays well? Any advice you can give is greatly appreciated.</p>
