Hello fellows, today I was going through some nice courses that I could consider when I hit 40. I discovered there are very few. I suppose most educational institutions might not accept me. So, I must just stick to my distance learning and specialize in business related or social science fields!

Here, "adults" can apply, but for most it seems to be a time and financial matter (it can be expensive). A low cost option here is attending a community college. Unlike the young folks who were taking required classes towards a degree, I took classes that I truly wanted to take. I didn't have to care about grades or anything - I took only 1 class at a time, so I could focus and enjoy with no pressure. I was 32 at the time and went during my lunch break from work. Yoga and dance classes - I was probably the oldest and no one noticed

For me, courses, college, continued education...all a waste of time. Investing was the only valuable education I ever got, and I didn't have to pay anyone to learn that. Granted, investing opportunities are different in Kenya than in the United States. But it was the most valuable thing I ever learned.
