OK, you've got serious income. Save it for a while. Then race your bike for a living and work on Perl 6 so you have a future when your knees give out.
I did it the opposite way. I dropped out of college for the 4th time at age 23 (English/Philosophy major) and spent the next 9 1/2 years making a living playing bass. I got my first full-time 40 hour/wk job *ever* at age 32, writing tech docs for peanuts. I turn 40 tomorrow, and my salary is higher than yours. =)
You've got time, money, and health. You have more options than you think. Take one of them. Or several.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
