They were never really seen as viable options when I was younger either, and they're areas I'm only just now looking into given I'm hard up for work.

I wish I had stuck with computer science in college.  I've always had a nack for programming, but I didn't stick with it for dumb reasons.  I sit here today wondering if it's too late to go back to that, and whether I could make it in that field without paying for an expensive education that I definitely can't afford.

If you already know how to program or think you could pick it up easily but don't have the money for courses, you could always try self-learning and try building up a personal portfolio. I'm not in the field so I can't say for sure what employers are looking for but it might be a good starting point.
