OT: Any mid-life career changers here?

in my case, they approached me
you can go to the school websites and look under employment opportunities and you can also send them your resume to let them know of your skill sets and availability
if head hunters still exist in this day and age maybe link up with some
good luck

keep your day job, massage is lovely, byt often considered a luxury item and is one of the first thing people will let go of when money gets tight
and, keep your overhead low (share offices, have office in home, etc)
and NETWORK like crazy

I haven't... I'm only 24, but I have an online friend who is about to finish law school, she's in her 40s.
I am, however, going to have to start from the bottom up in a few years. I start college in January of next year. Great for me. The only bad part- I'm already earning a decent salary and to do what I want to do I'll have to take a pay cut and start from the bottom up again. What's worse? Staying in a job that I'm only here for the check and continuing to not be happy in my career? Or taking a $10-12k pay cut in the name of happiness?

Happiness beats money every time, IMHO. As long as there's a little money.
I'm 36 but had a career crisis - currently in grad school for my Masters. My weight loss helped me realize that I was not being treated well at my old employer and I deserve the best for happiness, not to be miserable!

Have you seen the documentary...."A Lawyer Walks Into A Bar" ?
It's fairly recent - we just picked up in the new releases doc section. Might be worth seeing to help you make a decision. Its about taking the California bar exam.
My husband is a lawyer, and is currently out of work (it happens even to lawyers). He made a modest living at it, but not grand like many other lawyers. Two of my daughters are currently in law school. Their view is not necessarily to practise law, but view their law degrees as an adjunct to a business career.
