Finding a career

As a MGTOW, you need to find something that will allow you to live the life you want. The main advice I'd give is to realize what separates people making minimum wage and people making 6 figures or more. It isn't hard work. Lots of people at the bottom of the food chain work hard. Your salary is dependant on two things: how much responsibility you have and how many other people could do your job.

If your job has no responsibility, it won't pay that well. Likewise, if someone off the street could do your job as well as you with a couple weeks of training, you won't make that much. Don't be sucked into the "there are a lot of x jobs available" mentality. That's a bad way to pick a career. There has to be a job worth having at the end of the day. That doesn't mean your first job will be awesome. In fact, it will probably suck. The important thing is being on a path to the job that allows you to live your life.

The trades are a decent pick. Not my area - I push fairly specific types of paper for a living - but I've heard good things. Not sure why you're bothering with college if that's your end goal.

Software development is a pretty solid career

I'm a medical doctor hoping to start a solo practice. Currently my work completely dictates my life, even during my sleeping hours. Whatever field you go into, being self employed is a lot better than working for a company without considerable stock option.

I've got a couple friends that code, I've also got a few friends that have gone overseas to teach English, one in Japan and the other in South Korea.

I on the other hand didn't go to college, and I'm halfway stuck in a trade that I no longer enjoy.

Whatever you do, steer clear of anything that involves the daily use of solvents and particulates. Working with metal seems like fun to me. Alternative energy might be a good idea, but I would look into how the market is now to judge whether or not it's a good direction to go.

If you can do the math, engineering of some kind is the best way to get picked up right out of school, whether it be electrical or mechanical.

I had a lot of jobs in different fields, but the one I'm most looking forward to is my career in law enforcement. I'm training hard for it, studying and applying MGTOW to really, go my own way. It's something I've always wanted to do, and I'm finally doing it. Yeah, I may have to interact with women, my partner may even be a woman. My Sgt or chief may be a woman, but as long as we are working, we are police officers, and that comes before anything else. And it's not just women that I get rid of. I have gotten rid of anyone that is a blight on my well being, and told off many people because they became hostile towards me for pursuing a career in law enforcement. In the end, I'll know I'll be happy, and that's all that matters to me.

What can you imagine doing day in and day out and not grow to despise?

I know a few who went and became sparkies after leaving HS but then 7 to 10 years later depending on which area you go into they want to get off the tools as it started taxing their arms and wrists so if they cant find a desk position then they study to become electrical technicians/engineers
