College isn't for you. Join a trade union and do the apprenticeship thing instead of college. \n\nSheet metal fabrication and welding. Get good at CAD layout, etc.  \n\nThose jobs pay well, if you're good at it.

The two do not cross very well, engineering is the best shot at actually designing cars.  You will make a ton more money too.  You can always work on cars as a hobby. Restoring classics is always cool, and with a job in the engineering division of one of the auto companies you should be making enough money to afford any parts you may need

I would recommend a state or county jobs. Sounds boring huh. But these jobs have  excellent benefits. You can start as a clerk or office assistant, since you have typing skills. And then later on maybe you can continue school. They usually have programs for people who want to continue their education. The program I was in was called "20/20 program". Which ment I had to go to  school for 20hrs/wk. and go to jobsite for 20hrs./wk. But still get paid full time. It's cool. It got me through college.

maybe your line of education isn't really what you want to do.  Are you that major for yourself, or for others?  It's hard to get geared up for a job you don't really have an interest in.  Perhaps you should rethink your major and take stock in where you would like your life to take you.  Or perhaps you should make your own road and take your life along with you.  The key is to be happy doing what you do.  That way your heart is in it.  Good luck with your journey.  And of course, if you can get someone to pay for it, there's always grad school!

Oh hon, how old are you?  You sound JUST LIKE me when I was just finishing up school.\n\nNo one can (or should) tell you what to do with your life, especially not a bunch of strangers who know nothing about you.  It's a hard decision, and one that you need to really do a lot of soul searcing on.\n\nGo ahead and keep going to school.  Take a wide variety of subjects, and see what tickles your fancy.  Then do some research on those careers - what a typical work day is like, what a normal salary is, how much education is required, what the job market is like now, and what the projected job market will be like once you've finished your degree.\n\nI know you may be asking just to ask, but in case you are really looking for serious advice, I hate to see anyone do it the hard way like I did (married, working full time and going to school, too.)  I THOUGHT I knew what I wanted to do, and jumped straight into it my freshman year of college to find out I hated it.  Two major changes later I finally ended up dropping out.\n\nSo, since it sounds like we have a lot in common, besides accounting (what I do now) I have also considered - financial advisor, psychologist, teaching, engineering, and architecture.  I also plan, sometime in the next few years, to start my own business as a contract bookkeeper.\n\nEdited - typos galore :)

If you want a bigger paycheck, go to college. Most well-paying jobs in the world today require some sort of college education or degree.

Allright, I don't mean to sound like I'm preaching but this is truly what I would advise someone that is 19 years old.  Although I can imagine you really would want some extra cash right now you should think of the long-term picture.  Imagine if you're having a tough time right now, how you would be able to support a family when you grow up.  You really need to upgrade your skills so you can get a better job and the best way to do that is go to school.  I would suggest that you continue staying at home, work and try to save up money and try to get into a good college.  Hopefully with a combination of financial aid, loans and savings you'll be able to get a degree that will allow to move upto a job that pays significantly more.  I used to deliver pizzas when I graduated out of high school, but was able to go to college at the same time since my job was mostly working evenings/nights.  I graduated with a computer science degree and paid off all my college loans within two years after I graduated and worked another two years to save some money.  I then went to graduate school for an MBA and currently earn well over $100,000 and have a net worth over $500,000.  I am not telling you this to pound my own chest but so that you understand that it is very possible and that it really pays off to think of the longer-term.  I hope this helps and sorry I didn't answer your question directly.

I am a esthetician. There are alot of schools for this. Try a community college or private one. It depends on the state on how long it takes(how many hrs). It can be 2,000 and up. It  might be less at community college. Most you can take a fed school loan out. It's a great field, you have to love healing and people!

I understand what your saying. I enjoy stock car racing and would love to start (I'm only 16) but I know how pricey it could get and want to do it on my own with a little help from my mom. I'd suggest sitting down with your parents and seriously talk to them about this. Ask them if you could get a job to help pay for some of the expenses (if you feel you could work) and go from there. I keep hearing it's better to start young. So I wish you luck and hope you achieve what you want. Oh and don't ever stop believing in yourself-whether you start know or 10 years from now at least you'll know you tried!

Maybe you can get a consession from your school. you kno, people without good financial conditions most probably get those things. You can get a job or maybe walk you neighbor's dog?

My daughter didn't know what she wanted to do after graduating high school, so spent the next year working in a resort community. After getting to know the police officers there, she started to look into being a police officer. She's now close to graduating from college, and is attending the police academy. What I'm saying is that many kids don't know what they want to be until they get involved with something. Then, their natural talents kick in, and they begin to realize what they're good at. So, look at your talents. What are you really into? What feels more like fun than work? I think it's great to hear someone say that they get to work at what they love and ,oh by the way, they get paid to do it too! When you're excited about your job, you know that that's where you need to be. Whether that's waitressing or wheeling & dealing with corporations, enjoying your job is much better for you all around. Of course, having ANY job now days is better than nothing. I guess you need to look at the reasons behind you wanting to transfer. Don't just go to a college because of where it's located. That can get boring really quick. Look at what they have to offer. Also, look at your own talents. Line up what you have with what these colleges have to offer and see what sticks out. If your grades have been really decent, most colleges would be glad to have you. If your grades weren't so hot, you might consider going to a tech school, and get trained for a specific trade. It's cheaper and quicker. Hope you have much success in your career choice. <*)))><

If your in school, I'd suggest car washes, or allowances, or a job. A summer job could get you some quick money working $5 an hour just lawn mowing or something. Do something old school and simple. Just don't do a lemonade stand. It's a waste of time.

Check with your high school's guidance counselor's office. when I was in school, our school received phone calls from local businesses looking for cashiers, inventory clerks, office people, and other employees. Those employers were sensitive to the available hours that the students could work. The money wasn't great but the experience in business sure was. You have NOTHING to lose by asking about it. If that doesn't work out, look into your own business. Why not make 100% profits after taxes and expenses???

I had a very successful mowing/landscaping operation going all through high school.  It wasn't glamorous, but I made a ton of money; enough to put me through college debt free.  I had three employees and about $25000 worth of equipment when I sold the business at graduation.\nIt's a good one if you're dedicated to working hard.

If you do not need the extra support, do not use it.  I applaud your tenacity for moving forward through college after an accident.  That said, do not be afraid to ask for help or support if you begin to struggle or fall behind.  University is very challenging for everyone, disabled or not, and it is not bad to use the tools that are offered you.  Follow your heart and mind and make the decisions that you believe to be right.
