"Smart" Degree Options for Middle-Aged Non-Manager Type :)

[Nodaclu]

Thanks as always to everyone who has commented. I love the conversations here. They always stimulate my brain and getting me thinking in ways I might not otherwise.

One thing I know for sure - I don't have enough interest in business coursework to do it twice (undergrad and post-grad). So that leaves me with the options of:

1. Finishing the BS in Psych, and pursuing an MBA with an HRM Concentration. From here a potential CC Instructor position might be within reach.
   
   
2. Shifting gears and completing a BSBA, knowing that it would likely be my terminal degree. From here, Business Analyst roles would be within reach.
   

I know from research that there are a plethora of Business Analyst positions available everywhere, and at least in CA, I could count on a salary of about $75-80K/year. That would also allow me to have more control over where I ultimately live.

But I would *much* prefer the path of teaching from an enjoyment and personal fulfillment perspective. I'm not a workaholic, and the idea of summers off for low-budget travel greatly appeals to me.

Tough decision. I wonder how my ever-advancing age would potentially play into each equation?
