An "allied health" career. Think respiratory therapists, x ray techs, dental hygienists. Everyone wants to be a doctor or nurse, but with these careers you can basically pick your hours and make 85k to 120k a year and most them only require about 3 years of school at a low cost community college.

Anything dealing with coding is a waste of time.
Ai is going to do all of the coding within 10 years. Writing software will totally be done by ai

Industrial sales / business development is a pretty good career if you enjoy people. Huge age gap within the industry too.

Don't fly for FDX/UPS, they'll be the first ones automated.

What's left to rationally consider? My oldest is leaning toward Engineering or Law, maybe both.
I did both. Tell him to go to Med school

How is that going to work? You actually think we'll be able to just feed Jira or Azure DevOps tickets into an AI system and it will write some code and then everything will be great and move on?
Seriously, I am wondering what you think the software development process looks like now, and what you think it will look like with "AI."

He can do both. No law against a plumber having a college education
THIS^^^
Become a plumber and get a basic business degree and he'll be beyond golden.
Finding qualified management that understands the mechanics as well as the business is VERY rare and will be a great combo.
No rush. Get his plumbing license and work, but take a few classes every semester and by the time his bones start aching, he'll have a great pathi to running a mechanical company or starting his own...

you realize that the logic underpinning engineering is diametrically opposed to the legal profession. Engineering is based on calculation , laws of physics, metrics etc. The legal profession is based on when the facts, or the law is not on your side just argue

Plumber, electrician, or HVAC tech is a blank check.

Anything with a slight tech background will do. If they are willing to learn a skilled trade and will show up to work sober they won't have a problem making a very good living.

Most never own a business, of those that do, most fail.

My son told me his jr year in high school he wasn’t going to college. We sat down and discussed possible options. I brought him to the local DEMCO office and he spoke with the linemen and the supervisor.
He liked what he heard, enrolled in the lineman’s program at NTCC and was fortunate enough to get a lineman’s job at DEMCO.

Accounting and Finance are great coming out of school.
In short, have a quantitative skillset and good business acumen with some personal skills…voila.

Go to a decent state school, get a job in public, get your CPA, do your 3-5 years, and then either go industry or join a small firm where you can become partner quickly. Is it the only route? No. It's a high percentage shot, though.
