When what will make you money, you're good at and also is the easiest combine it's better than doing what you love.

Can anyone recommend an easy money making major? I'm going back to Uni and have to choose my major and minor soon, as soon as my debit card gets in I pay what I owe and go back.
>>27397542
By the tone of your post I can confirm I was right.
I don't need to explain further. You explained it yourself. If you like philosophy so much you should be able to see why.

not if you actually want to talk about gender studies stuff all the time, besides would you really want someone like that in *your autistic major here*'s classes?
>>27397376
What do you love about the field?
>>27397376
Well I mean if you love gender studies than I'd rather you follow that career path and end up with a low-paying entry-level job for the rest of your life than a career path that leads to actual responsibility and accountability.
In a way it removes the idiots from the job market.

Just stop. You have no idea how difficult this is, and the money only comes later in life. This makes me question your other recommendations.
>300k starting

Engineering is the only non-meme thing on that list. I've worked in hospitals before. Not easy cash at all. Its for people who fell for the meme. Law is even worse 80+ hour work weeks and lots of drug abuse among students and colleagues in the field, even my old friend now a jewish lawyer had to go to therapy, popping too much addy and snorting too many lines.
Who journalism here? Can't wait to finish my major and go off to Syria and maybe not get killed, but I'm seriously alright with death, in fact I welcome it.

The actress is a slave girl from age 5 then she flies the millenium falcom with a nigger to han solos new ship then gets captured or something by the Nazis then she uses Jedi mind tricks to escape because her dad is luke so "Lol it makes sense now" I am going to go full aurora at the next movie

i never said it was easy, i said it was big money for very smart people, meaning also people who are extremely dead-set on doing medicine and willing to put themselves 200k in debt and giving up half their life to get there
in the end you make big cash though, nobody can deny that
>>27397837
Would you rather it be fastest growing in terms of new jobs estimated to be created during that period? That would be even less informative. Shit like fast food servers would be at the top of the list.
And you can see the absolute number for each of these by clicking on the links.

Yes absolute numbers are way better, you would know as a good statistician. Smaller nigger jobs like wind turbine technician only had 100 jobs in the first place. 108% doesn't mean anything.
And yes shitty wage jobs should be at the top because that is thetruth
>>27398055
Do your own analysis then, autist. The data is all right here:

Nobody is saying to go be a wind-turbine technician anyway.

Who here CS?
First year here, did C and C++, will do SQL and Java next, any tips from people with experience in the field?
Also if you become turbo with social and leadership skills can you advance quicker than the autists on the corporate ladder?
>>27398351
Kill yourself that major will be flooded with code monkeys by the time you graduate.
>>27397269
According to that I did a shit tier degree but it pays the bills and I don't really have any desire to do anything in particular so I wouldn't have picked one on my own.
>>27398351
Java is a waste of time, don't do it.
Early childhood education
I am in for a life of debt and poverty. But at least I only need an AA
>>27398411
I must because it's gonna be my module

Isn't it already? I try to raise above the monkeys/autists by working on my social skills and ability to work with people and shit
What are you studying?
Is anyone else here in geography?

This is me but I don't really love or hate medicine and I know it didn't sound the easiest but I was too lazy to try and argue against what my parents wanted me to do (and also, don't really want to do anything).
>>27397542
listening to weird fishes rn desu
>What you're good at
>What sounded easiest
Is this not the same thing?
Did Mathematics because it was what I was half decent at and I enjoy numbers. Done shit all with it after graduating so far though.
>>27398804
Me too desu. Don't really love anything. But it definitely did sound like the easiest thing that would make me lots of money at the time. Little did I know.
>>27398815
Not the same thing because even though I'm good at my field I could easily switch to some hugbox major like women's studies and get straight A's for spewing garbage.
>>27398760
you do medicine probably.
>>27398899
The reason I didn't go against it was because I know job security is pretty high and starting wage is usually above average wherever you are.
People moan that it's hard work and that it buggers their relationship and social life but I already don't have a great social life and have never had a relationship so I don't care, I'd live in the hospital out of convenience if they would let me. The work can be a bit difficult at times but when you get the hang of it roughly everything becomes quite second nature.
Aim is to be an orthopaedic surgeon and make big money privately but there's a good chance I might be dead before that happens with the way things are going now. Still, could be worse.
>>27398177
Don't act like you can help mentally ill people you idealistic piece of psychology shit. Nobody wants help from a freshman who thinks he can analyze everything.
>>27399057

>>27397809
I'm picking in a week and I love politics but've been ushered by my parents into going with Econ. Is it really that bad? The graduate average salaries look good.
>>27399352
Nah I graduated in 2014 and managed to get a surgical training post. If I don't fuck around after 2 years I can start calling myself an orthopaedic surgeon but I'll still be a junior registrar. The next two years of my training are 18 months of trauma and orthopaedics and 6 months of neuosurgery to round it off (hopefully I'll see some decent spinal surgery there).
And I said that because the average age of consultants keeps going up with more and more competition to get into registrar training and then even more at consultant level. At the stage I just applied for around 1000 applicants in the country applied for surgery and after interviews 824 got ranked in order to compete for 508 jobs nationally (which is less than the number of jobs offered for last year). It isn't really that stiff competition when you look at it but for my career path it's the easiest it will be excluding directly getting a job after graduating.
I'm working in fucking psychiatry of all things right now because of the way our training programme is in the first two years after graduating and have 4 months of general medicine after that but then no more medicine/not surgery jobs ever.

What country do you live in? I'm pretty sure things don't work that way in burgerland
>bullied by parents and /biz/ into picking "realistic" majors
>4 years of college before I finally gave them the finger and settled with political science
I tried. I really did. I tried engineering, I tried teaching, I tried business, but the whole time I felt miserable and worthless. I can't compete in a field where I hate waking up in the morning. With a political science degree, sure I'm stressed about my future, but at least I'm not stressed about tomorrow too.

4 years undergrad in any major as long as you take the required prerequisite courses
2 years medical basic sciences
2 years clinical rotations
Then we match into a desired specialty for a residency. Usually for any residency, it's a year of internship rotating through different fields that are at least somewhat relevant to your specialty and after that you pretty much do nothing outside of your field until the end. Orthopedics is 5 years total post grad

Why is law bad again?
>>27399891
Right. So it takes the full 8 years to be able to call yourself a doctor is it?
For us it's 5 years of medical (usually split into pre-clinical and clinical years) and then you graduate and can call yourself Dr. Then there's 2 years of foundation training which is 6 jobs of four months in length in a mix of surgery, medicine and one job in the community (GP or psych). After that you apply to core training which is split up into medicine, surgery, anaesthetics and GP and core training takes 2 years. For surgery you can apply for a themed job, so a 2 year set of jobs but with more focus on one type of surgery. After core traning you apply for registrar posts which is where you do the speciality you want to do forever and the training is meant to be 5-6 years but can take much longer, especially in surgery. Finally after that you're a consultant, the big boss. GP training programme is the shortest, after 2 years foundation training and 3 years of core training in GP you are a full time GP.

Unless you want to get a masters and teach it's better to go into info tech/systems, telecommunications or business administration.
>>27398351
>you advance quicker than the autists on the corporate ladder?
Yea, so you better git good with communicating with people.
It turns out I only love something if it doesn't involve anything but my own interests, and the quality of my work goes down as soon as it does not involve my niche.
I used to casually program until I took CS classes, and then I lost all taste for it.
I did "what I loved", History, only to find out that I hate reading and applying material outside my areas of interests.
Even easy things, like introductory microeconomics, become completely dull and unengaging when scheduling and testing are involved.
I never really had aspirations in the first place, to be honest. I just want to be distracted.
What tier am I if I majored in CS because I'm good at it, it will make me money, and because I find it easy?
>>27400118
Same. I can't think of anything that I would like to do as a job. So I picked something secure to study in. I hate studying though and am lazy as fuck. I hope this doesn't backfire on me

You are assuming that a robot changes in the process.
>spend all day doing drugs and fucking Stacy receptionists
The only drug I do is adderall, because I spend 8-10 hours researching and constructing shit which has no impact on my life.
>get paid a shit ton of money
Would you call "$50k including overtime" a shit ton of money?

I've realized I hate "school". Most of schooling I never really took it seriously, it was a place I went to learn stuff and make friends. Once you realize you can't write more then 4 pages or read more then 20 pages of a textbook before you get bored it's like a punch in the gut.
Even if I did practice and try again and again, I would be in college forever and I don't have money to burn either.
