Best career field to be in?

- Start date
the veteran status may help especially if you have security clearance still, but a business degree i would avoid at all costs

Don't go into science. It's a long ass haul to a Ph. D. 4 years undergrad, 5 years grad school and 3 years post doc. That's 12 years or more with minimal earnings. Median salary for a chemistry professor is 85K after all that and the positions are few and far between. You have to be in the top performers to make a decent living and at least 1/2 of the jobs are in expensive regions of the country. I do pretty well but I would consider my lifestyle pretty middle class after all that. Right around 100K in the area I live is pretty middline especially when you include the debt incurred during the training. I'm in chemisty and medicine. I have friends that work for NASA that are pretty much in the same boat as me and these guys are top 1% in physics and engineering.. some of the smartest guys here in the US. If you are super smart and have good business acumen you can do better than me.. at least as I do now. If you come up with something that is marketable the university or research institute you work for gets the majority of the profit from your idea unless you are really really resourceful. Get into science if you love it and feel called to it, not for money. If you want to make money maybe look into finance or private business. I also know people that do very well kin real estate. A sort of untold truth is a lot of guys that are wealthy made some of their original operating capital illegally. A good number of the supplement company owners for instance.
Yep
yeah if you read it, then you know i told a little bit too much about myself and my past in regards to glycomans ending statement lol, figured no good could come of that info being out there lol
you lost me brutha, what email did you get?
as for real estate license, its always good to have brutha! do you need to pass a state and federal part to get your license? and at the same time!?? I know i passed federal, failed state, so i had to take the entire test over both federal and state, its pretty fucked up, so then i passed the part i failed the previous time and failed the part i passed, lmao talk about angry!
So then i decided to actually read the fucking book and then take the test, funny how studying makes a difference! lol
oh ok, i see now lol, sorry i was confused at first! lol
Yeah I got mine about 12 or 13 years ago, and lets just say i don't have it anymore lmao

If you use it just to buy your home then you came out on a good end of the deal. I'm going to use it for investment properties as well.
Ut-oh lol that doesn't sound like it ended well

Id say that would be the one to get. It's fucking easy to get a business degree, I mean some of the classes buddies took were a joke. Besides who the hell uses their degrees for the career?

That's hillarious, we were just talking about that here at work. A co worker just bought a house and her agent made $14k commission for doing shit! She was so pissed off. She mentioned she was going to get her license to become a broker on the side, those fuckers make bank.

That's pretty much how it is everywhere I think. It's tough to gain a working capital playing by the rules and if you look hard enough all the guys at the top of the game twisted some rules pretty damn hard on the way to the top. I can't say how I know this
.Currently I am in a medical field (medicAL records and release of information) and am going a step further outside the more administrative box into the more hands on (Occupational Therapy) Any type of therapy field (physical, occupational, sports medicine, etc) in high in demand for hospitals, nursing homes, rehab centers etc. Many schools now are offering 2 year programs. Especially since you enjoy doing what you do as far as physical fitness, maybe look into some sort of nutritional science. Good luck!

As mentioned, the best career field is Crime. In a country where the highest Law Enforcement Officer in the Country (Eric Holder Attorney General) is held in Criminal Contempt of Congress and openly states that he has no fear of prosecution as he is highest Authority in the land, there truly is no accountability. As such I see no reason not to break the law if no one is specifically hurt. I am making reference to most financial crimes as well as narcotic offenses. President Obama has broken more laws than any Mafia conglomerate in history. He couldn't even abide by HIS OWN LAW - The ACA.
Less than 2% of financial crimes are prosecuted. Most are written off by banks. I have numerous acquaintances that have made small fortunes through blatent financial crime. The most any have faced is Probation.
In my experience the SA won't even prosecute if the loss is less than $500,000....
Do you know what your life would be like with $500,000 tax free???
