What skills should a 19 year old zoomer learn to /make it/?

[Anonymous No.14065661]

What are some based and redpilled skills to learn to be successful in life? I feel like I'm going nowhere right now. Sure I got alot of redpills, some knowledge and improved my vocabulary slightly from shitposting on the chans but I have no real applicable skills.

I've just worked wagie tier jobs like dishwashing or working at a warehouse. I did pretty well at school and got accepted into some prestigious unis but never accepted because of the expenses.

At this point I feel like I need to learn:
>how to handle my finances
plus
>some skill to master which will lead to a high paying career or allow me to start my own business

Do you /pol/acks have any good suggestions? I was thinking cybersecurity, accounting or maybe go to CC for 2 years + 2 year uni in my province to get an engineering degree or maybe a math, physics or CS degree?

I'm just sort of confused right now because I'm reading all these articles about how accounting will be automated and how all current CS grads just get jobs as code monkeys that don't lead anywhere.

yes
>some skill to master
Networking. Technically and socially. Get a few CompTIA Certs, and get an entry level IT job. Try hard, stay late, make friends, and the rest is cushy, anon.

Ty for the advice. So no need for college, then? Just get certs and network?

College always helps. Don't go 100k in debt in University. Spend 15k at community college and focus on Cisco/Adtran stuff

security is a safe play but the real money is in sales. learn both and you can make a fuck load of money selling security to enterprise.

Nope. A 2 year with a cert or two is plenty to get 20/h entry level networking/desk top support role

Here's the best advice you'll ever get. Buy pic related and know it forward and backwards. This is something that is useful in multiple industries (data science, bioinformatics, finance, etc.). If you want to make it in the future, you should know some programming. Not saying you should know enough to write your own software, but enough that you can be useful.

>CS degree meme

By the time something becomes a meme you're already too late and the field is oversaturared by people just like you who fell for the exact same meme.

t. fell for the CS degree meme

Location depends a lot too. I live near a lot of government contracting HQ's and an army base. Anything CS, CIS, IT, Engineering, etc. is guaranteed 60k in a low cost of living state

So I'll be able to work in the US with a 2 year cerrt from Canada if I successfully network? I thought that H1B workers NEED a bachelors?

Kinda drunk and haven't read any reply in this thread, but pretty much everyone with power in the united states is either an attorney, a successful business person, or some high ranking military general. There are exceptions but they are few. Therefore, go to college (and get into rotc if you go the military route) and then go to either law school or business school and make connections with other powerful people and hope you rise to the upper echelons of society.
