I am an electrical engineer working a decent fiat job. If I had stacked SATs at minimum wage instead of go to college in 2012 I would be retired on generational wealth by now.

I work in a cool industry, have some cool skills, and make okay money, but find myself wishing I could do some Bitcoin related work. Every now and then I contemplate brushing up on coding skills.

Its hard to tell with the opportunity cost. What would you miss in the next couple years while in school? What doors will that degree open? It could be very worth it if you are getting a technical degree. I know a guy who took 8 years of part time classes while working full time to get his electrical engineering degree.

With tuition assistance, i'd be going to school for free.

I'd get tuition assistance if i'd work the 2nd job as another full time.

Both jobs give me the ability to study and do other things at work.

The opportunity cost is between freelancing harder or obtaining a bachelors.....I think.
