Would you have to adapt often if your career is in technology?

Will you have to "change" in order to avoid structural unemployment? Technology advances at an exponential rate, so one would have to constantly learn new things. Some technologies become obsolete and companies go out of business, so what would that leave for someone working in tech? #computer...

How can I develop or achieve a academic or dream career while also maintaining a sufficient social and personal life?

For instance, being able to take vacations, practice my hobbies, hang out with friends and family are all what I desire but I fear I won't be able to do any of that if I take the standard academic route and do a Masters program or go to graduate school for even longer.

I believe people to go to school to get a diploma, to prove people that they finish high school or maybe the reason people go to school it's because they want to makes more money. People don't have to go to school to start investing though.
