<prompt> Human: Title says it all. Im currently working as a legal assistant at a small legal services company for 15ho. Ive essentially plateaued there and have been searching for new positions elsewhere. Im currently in-line for a job making 20ho at a loan company, but theres no guarantee that I got it. Even if I do, Its only one small step forward.Cost of living here is very high, and as such, Im still living at home. I save about 1,000 to 1,500 a month, and currently have 10,500 in the bank. My goal is to be able to save enough for a down payment on a home within the next 2-3 years. I have excellent credit, with a current score of 788.I have several paths from here I can take. Military and law enforcement are constants, but both have pretty big negatives. Military would remove me from my home and my family, and law enforcement is difficult to get into, especially with five traffic tickets on my record in the last few years.Going back to school is another big step I want to take, but there are so many options, with so few ways to know which will pay off the best. I have a BA in English from the Cal State University program, which is largely useless, and its preventing me from being able to go back into a Bachelors program. As such, I would need to either get into a trade school or an AA program. Ive considered paralegal, computer science, and business, while leaning pretty heavily towards computer science.I also intend to start making use of Khan Academy and other free resources to build a knowledge database for business and programming, but have no idea how applicable my accomplishments with those programs will be for getting a job.Please offer me any advice, big or small. I welcome all of it. Feeling like Ive wasted my life up to now and have no idea where to go.  <response>: Any BA is never useless my friend
