My bachelor's degree is in Occupational Therapy and I worked for 13 years as an Occupational therapist in mental health, primary child and adolescent psych units. After 13 years, I got a Microsoft certification and have been working in IT for the last 11 years. (I got my certification eleven years ago this month!). Now I'm working on a master's degree in Information Assurance (IT Security), which, while related, is almost like a third career too because it is more focused. It absolutely can be done. I cannot even see myself having continued to work in the mental health field with the way the health care system is.
All that said, a transition to real estate could be done slowly you know. I know A LOT of people who do it part time/evenings and weekends only to start and then, as they make enough money to leave their other jobs, they do so. It can take time to start making money because you have to get some contacts established.
If I wanted to transition to something like real estate, that's how I would go about it.
