i was in the same boat as you. im 25 now with 2 kids, but when i had my first kid i was working 40 hours a week at a gas station for 8.50 an hour. mos def wasnt cutting it.

got a second job as a bus boy at a high end restaurant and worked my way up to a server after 2 years. i hated it for the longest and felt i was disrespected but those 2 years payed off. now im a server making 150- 200+ five days a week plus a 300-400 paycheck every two weeks im eating good.

plus there talking about opening up another restaurant and having me run it.


even after all my good fortune i still want to go to school and do something else. i dont want my kids to have to tell there friends there dad is a server while they tell them there dad is some ****in NASA engineer or some ****.


what im trying to say is work hard in whatever you want and it will pay off.take care of your children first. in the end i know i got it very good where i am at and i still strive for more, but reality is reality, and how stupid would i be leaving a job making 40-50k a year to risk throwing that all away for a "respectable" career.

i will still go to school, but unless i get a job offering 60k plus, ill stay where im at

priority's my dude

security guard. they hire so many black security guards i think because of the violent and intimidating stereotype

prison guards make a decent amount amount. i think more than teachers

Information technology.

MCSE, CCNA, CCNP = 100k

You forgot the part about 7 years of experience. No one is gonna hire him to manage their network without enough experience.

it can be hard work, but there are a lot of safety precautions in place.

But with no college education, a union job like this is the way to go if you can get it.

Find the closest Exelon Nuclear Power Plant


Apply for an "armed security guard" position. Out where im from, they are hiring any/everybody it seems like, and these guys have no college degree (only high school), and no police training/security experience. Im just talking ordinary dudes u graduated with. A friend of mine got hired not too long after he got a DUI (maybe a year or 2, they let him slide)

U gotta be able to do some corny agility test/running test...maybe a quarter mile in like 4 minutes, and a step up test, but its a joke apparently

Here they make $23 an hour...but they are 12 hour shifts...u work swing shift (6-6pm for a few days...day off or 2 days off, 6-6am). My friends work there, and they literally sit in a tower, and watch movies on their phones and shyt

Its more than 40 hours a week, but yearly they bring in close to 60,000 a year, which isnt bad money considering the work. Exelon has plants all over the place, look into it
