You are never too young ....... I am 30 and been have a career crisis since I was 21.
Do what makes you happy and find out what you need to make you happy. I am an Accountant and althougth my job is boring, it has always given me the salary that I require. So even though I am not 100% happy in my job, who is??? It gives me the financial freedom to do what I want.
Think about what you are looking for in life. I think the most important thing is to be happy, material things mean nothing, a man can have no wealth, but be the happiest individual on the planet.

35 is an excellent age to have a mid-life crisis - you don't want to be too old, or you won't enjoy it

My BIL is an accountant and I was saying to him that I'm not living the "right life" and he emailed back to say he isn't either - he wants to be a rock god!!!

There comes a time when we all take stock of our lives and wonder what on earth we are doing and how can we make it more fulfulling - that to me is mid-life crisis time. Wasn't far off that age when we decided to emigrate 
(Mmmm, wonders how many people actually do decide to emigrate during their M.L.C. 
)
HWP - note that your crisis came 7 years apart. I believe there is a 7-year cycle. It's the stereotypical '7-year itch' whether it's relationships, housing or job.
A friend of mine's is so fed up with her house (which is lovely BTW) thats she is desperate to move. I found out that they have lived there for 14 years so I told her it's no wonder she's desperate as she has 2 x 7-year itches to scratch
