I am a 27 year old managing director, and I would not employ you. Why:
1. A client may not like it, and whether you think that is wrong or not, the client is always right (unless they are being racist, sexist or any other ist); and
2. The fact that you bring this issue up shows that you obviously feel a need to rebel. I don't need employees like that.
The people that are successful in this world, know how to play the game. Take the ring out if you want to start playing the game at all.

It is ridiculous to assume that a person who simply wants to remain creative in their appearance is automatically, or even likely to be, rebellious.
The fact that your clients may not like it is possibly a good enough reason for your own interests. But, only if you have an extremely conservative and uptight client base.
Your observations about who is successful in this world in relation to this nose ring are shallow and naive.
Advice to the original poster: If you can afford to be passed up by some employers, I'd keep the ring in. You'll be most successful at a company that is more liberal in their outlook anyway.
