Alright guys, I'm just turning 18. I want to be something in life, make my parents proud, and most importantly provide myself and hopefully my other half a good life. I'm dreadful at math,but great in other subjects, I'm hard working, know the concept of saving money, and don't mind getting dirty. Does anybody know a good paying trade to learn? I'm trying to decide if not that becoming a nurse after 4 years and getting my clock wet in the medical field, or becoming a psychologist for kids. Worst comes to worst find an office job or become a police officer. Military is a no go because severe asthma. Pic related, me.

If that's actually you, you're absolutely required to become a bouncer.

Idk, do they get paid well, it could open the door for security jobs. I'm hardly 6-1.

Psychology isn't recommended, the odds of getting a job after studying is pretty slim.
Nursing is good because nurses are always in demand everywhere, the question is whether you can handle the workload and random hours.

You're still young so find something that you're passionate about, you sound pretty caring so nursing would suit you.

It's cold as shit and should be asleep and I have to wake up in 5 hours, I have to go earn my license at 8. Sorry man, here's me with my. Girlfriend going to prom. People say I'm that black guy in the movie that gives great advice, has a long dick, and is friendly as hell.

Timestamp tomorrow, promise.

But back on topic, I'm currently a bag boy, when I'm 18 I want to work at an sports authority or something. I hate WinnDixie with a passion. What's a good trade to learn?

Sorry, using a damn app for this. To the dude that recommend nursing, I can handle the hours and the stress, I told my self if I was going into the military I would be a PJ. Or atleast a medic. So if I go into medical, would It be good to go through an EMT course? I planned on doing that along with a class E license. Gotta be versatile in the job war.

That's for Psych undergrads. Once you've settled on a specialization and pursue a Master's or PHD, you become much more employable.

Here's the data and projects for some Psych fields related to kids. Not sure what you're thinking.

You can join the French Foreign Legion and lie about your asthma, if you it doesn't act up too much.

>> No.61721

Any good welding jobs? I'm a pepper so it would be good to learn that.

And as much as I would love to join the Legion, I heard the pay is shit, as well as every living else minus the actual training and soldiers, which is brutal. I've learned enough French from fucking my ex, I'm fine for now.

>> No.61757

I would highly suggest electrical work. You can making like $20K a year as an apprentice which will help you learn everything and then you make like $30-$40K a year as a junior electrician. If you start up a company you can pull $10K jobs every 2 weeks (if you can find the work). Best to get into commercial properties because you get bigger jobs but they take longer. Have a crew of 2-3 guys that you can throw on the payroll.

I do carpentry work with my pops but the electricians I know make decent coin and their job is much cleaner. You can wear a polo to work and not ruin it like you most definitely do in carpentry.

I'm learning some of the basics of it right now.

>> No.61819

Welding? Really. Honestly the best trade to get in to now is HVAC. Seriously. The way heat has been rising each year will only further hvac technicians earnings.

I'm curious. How hard would it be for a Psychology PhD to get a business loan to go into private practice? I kind of think psychology is a lame career, but that's probably the angle I'd go for if I were into it.

I'd give myself like a 70% chance of being a successful entrepreneur and a 30% chance of going bankrupt, spiraling into an inescapable depression over my inadequacy made manifest, and then spend my last $500 on a gun.

I'm not going to be an entrepreneur.
