> if you are really good, it's quite possible that government agencies will try to recruit you, and if you say YES, it's a one way street.

This is the most terrifying item on your list. Saying no, however, is generally the best way to avoid such a one-way street ;)

It really isn't a one way street. People of people come from TLA and go on to work in the private industry as information security consultants. I have many friends that have taken this path.

Yup. In fact, that's more or less what I have done. I think by one-way street OP meant foreign governments as opposed to U.S. governments, though.
