just dont expect to make big bucks in arch, and the novelty of decorating a building will wear off someday.

as pretentious as it may sound you have to have a somewhat philosophy oriented mind or else you'll never be able to tell a good story to sell.

think about it: there are so many architects out there, why would developers want to pay you big bucks specifically to design a building? Design is subjective, what makes your "taste" superior than the others?

Whole thing is a shit show. You can only make it if you're really insightful and can contribute new way of thinking and designing but stuffs like this are usually limited to a person's natural capacity for """deep thought""". Architecture tends to attract those hippie creative leftists that wants to do arts but settles for something more realistic. However the truth is those types of people will never be able to create a thoughtfully designed building.

(pls let me continue my rant I'm autistic this way) architecture is much more about project management than it is about designing. Designing is reserved for the best, and the best are always pretty smart people that can think both "philosophically" and in detail about issues. You need to have a knack for the ""big ideas"" while still be autistic enough to obsess over the little things.

Otherwise you'll have to take over the role of project management (still big money if you can do it right) and be the person that get things done and make things work.

That's why architecture can be shit/suicide tier at worst because schools are usually painting a false narrative to lure in naive students, only for the students to realise it isnt what they were told and they've wasted money and time. However if you're lucky and genuinely find all aspects of architecture profession interesting, in addition to being good at it, then the good news is that you'll be able to fly quite high before you hit the celing. Genuinely good architects are like good programmers or good film directors.

This is sadly true. So your "god tier" engineering degrees makes you $100-200k (after 5-10 years) IF you pack up and move to wherever the industry hub is (otherwise you'll make half that). And you have <1% chance of randomly joining a company during a growth phase and being promoted to executive level and make $400year maximum. Oh yeah, and enjoy that 40%+ effective tax in that income range.

Except even at 6 figures you a still a peasant in the modern neofeudalist world. A rich man will make more money than you from his passive investments and actually be able to live 90% of his life instead of waging to make other people rich. Plus he'll pay probably half the effective tax rate of someone who actually works for him money.

From what I can tell, doing a PhD isn't something you can do just to waste time, even if that is probably what it'll end up being, or at least a worthwhile one. Are you sold on the idea of a career in science? I know a guy who says he's doing he's PhD because he didn't know what to do but it looks kinda pathetic, like you need to be strung along in school for another 3 years. Also pay is shit and getting postdoc positions after means you might be changing where you live every few years so settling down with a family might be a little more difficult, or maybe that's because I kinda want a family pretty young too.

The goal is 2.5 mil in dividend paying stocks, gives us about 50k a year to live off of after taxes. We'll get there pretty fast. I also got her into crypto back in June 2017, she made her own coinbase account and bought her own eth and bitcoin.

Disagree with the military and law enforcement. That should be great tier. Especially since Trump is in officer. Their pensions are fucking insane and the amount of shit you can get away with is insane.

physics student.
it, like mathematics, should be in unbelievable tier, as well as computer science and even applied math.

astrophysics, geophysics, medicine, even chemisty is cucked from math perspective, and math is the single most important thing.

Petroleum engineering is actually the trash of engineering. If oil is low you can't even get a job in normal engineering fields because you skill set is too niche. It's only good if oil is booming which doesn't say much as truck drivers with missing teeth can make the 100k in a boom as well.

Literally every answer you got condemns you to poverty and being some phd' s bitch. Oil is over 70. Get a job as a mudlogger/ wellsite geologist. Make like 1k a week when on site then when oil crashes move over into grad school and study seismic strat and move into exploration.
