I have for little bit. But I don't think I'm smart enough for it. Is it big enough? I also don't see much job opportunities. I'm worried I'd just jump from something I like and enjoy (Functional programming) but can't find job in, into something similliar, that I won't be able to pay bills with.

I only hear of these 20yrs olds catching awesome bugs, and thinking that it's awesome for them, but it feels like I missed out on it a bit.

But it is good idea. To be honest I considered DBA... it seemed to be more sensible lol... I actually enjoyed working with Posgres, tuning it etc...

It's beyond big enough and with the right talent the pay is going through the roof. It's only going to grow. Take a stab at it, doesn't hurt exploring the option.
I will definitely explore it. Thank you. That's a kickass suggestion.
