OP here.
I've been working at a club as a bartender for the past years. I want to get out because I just can't deal with drunk bimbos anymore. I went to college for finance but I dropped out because I didn't feel like I was fit for school.

I've been thinking about getting an IT cert and just doing help desk for a while. Is this a good plan to go with? I've been told that IT is a booming field and that I can work my way up if I continue getting more IT certs/experience.

I found my fiance when i was certain id be single for life. had to get a restraining order on my ex gf because she kept trying to have me shot.

try drinking a gallon of water a day and working out. if you can afford it; p90x will get you in great shape FAST

do some reading, work on your posture, keep a clean haircut (not that shaved on the side bullshit people are wearing today)

floss and brush 2x a day, change your sheets often & get plenty of sleep.

also don't use soap on your face, just rinse it with cold water. you need your natural oils. people strip them with harsh detergents and wonder why their skin is flaky, red and bumpy :\

Just working sales for money. Industrial equipment. It's mostly awful, and I work for the two most retarded people you could imagine. Can't break 5 million in a year despite flooded market and 35 consecutive years of business. Anyone with two briancells to rub together could dig us out of this. I talk to them, but they think all I do is complain. Retards will retard.

You could probably get a start by doing some part-time remote helpdesk work. It is a nice way to build some work experience up while your getting your certs.

There are also ways of "infiltrating" certain companies with big IT departments. Start in an entry-level job at a company with a big IT department. State your goals, bullshit, and show your certs if you have any. That might get you there too

Humanities post-doc

Pay is decent, combined two scholarships during PhD so I made ok money and have decent savings. Love doing research and the freedom to make your own schedule, teaching is enjoyable too.

Just had a kid and wife is not working, so not much spare cash to put into crypto ATM unfortunately.

Not sure I'll go for a professorship job afterwards though. More pressure and administrative crap for not much more pay and the future looks very uncertain for the profession. I've been coding freelance on the side since grad school to make extra cash, so I might just get a better paying tech job.

Get a tube script, preferably MechBunny. Find a niche to exploit, in my case gay amateur because almost zero copyright complaints to deal with when you rape other tube sites for content. Could just as easily be fat chicks, trannies, asian, whatever. As I work gay I use Chaturbate but there are probably a couple dozen cam affil programs out there you can join. I prefer revshare over pps as the revshare really adds up over time. Get some cheap pajeet programmer to integrate api feeds into your listings and you are set to go.

I know a few colleagues who are sorted for various reasons (married rich, inherited, bought at the right time, etc...) who still do the job and say the second they stop depending on that pay check the mentality and way they approach work changes completely, they seem genuinely happy/relaxed.

If I ever make it I'll probably carry on working full time initially until I am certain everything is secure (money in bank account, house purchased and paid off, taxes all level, accountant on retainer, maybe invest in a business like a bar for secondary passive income, etc...) then go part time.

AWS cert mite be worth it but these days it's more about being able to demonstrate your skill with a particular technology, and it's moving so fast that by the time you get a cert it's already outdated. Learn shit like Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Jenkins, Puppet, Chef, Ansible, etc and obviously learn python, bash scripting, maybe some perl, and probably javascript because eventually you're going to be asked to troubleshoot some asshole's node api even though it should be that asshole's job
