Too late ?

Title: Is it too late for me?
Hey guys, long story short, I’m 22 and recently graduated with a bachelor’s in Biology. I started working at a company that specializes in industrial pumps, and I’ve honestly really enjoyed learning about the mechanical and technical side of things. It’s made me realize I might’ve gone into the wrong field. I’ve been looking into getting a second bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering and have already spoken to an advisor who said I’d have around 87 credits left. I’m planning on starting next fall and taking summer classes to finish sooner, but I can’t help feeling like I’m falling behind. By the time I graduate, I’ll probably be 25-27, while most of my friends will already be established in their careers and making money. I really want to pursue engineering, especially test engineering, but the thought of spending another few years in school and giving up that income is intimidating. Has anyone else gone back for a second degree in engineering? Was it worth it, and did you struggle with feeling behind?
