Career change in mid-thirties
Posted on 4/13/17 at 1:24 pm
Posted on 4/13/17 at 1:24 pm
Considering a career change. 35 years old, married with 4 kids. Current job pays well but is mentally draining and pretty much 24/7. No formal education past high school. What are some of the higher paying certificate/degree programs that I could get in a year or two that would get me in the door somewhere with no experience?

I'll send you my work from home kit for $299 or house flipping kit for $249.
Your choice.

I know a guy that did this. He's sucking dick for taco bell in order to feed his family now. Good news is that this is far more physically draining than mentally though and you can definitely do it with no prior experience.

Really, though, a PTEC program is not hard, and you can have a good paying job after 2 years.

Open a paint and body shop. Vehicular vandelism is on the rise and being celebrated.

What do you do now? I'm starting a new job in July that I've never done before but drafting skills I learned at my current job is what got me in the door. I imagine a complete change of pace might be challenging, but if there is some part of your job that could translate somewhere else, look into that.

That is every degree that pays well. Suck it up, and look for a way to exploit your experience in your current trade.

You should go back to school and get a degree in social work

Wait, are you saying that he's accepting taco Bell as payment for blowjobs, or taco Bell has a guy on payroll whose job it is to suck dick?

Darth would love that job.
