I work at a financial institution and I manage the operational end for a few applications. It's a mixture of being a Sys Admin, a Dev, and a business user. These applications specifically handle massive amounts of data, integrate with many different systems, and have a mixture of JMS/JAX WS/ETL components. The users of these applications are data stewards.

Good luck breh. The money is there you just gotta have a lot of connections with the right people. What type of consulting you planning to do?
Preciate it breh, for now I'd like to provide basic networking, virtualization, server infrastructure. I'm sure starting out it'all be heavy in desktop/MSP Helpdesk

I'm already a systems admin, just a junior one. I'm not sure what to pivot to, but I know I have to learn more. My employer is saying learn AWS.
Career wise I originally wanted to eventually get to the role of a Business Architect but I'm thinking because of my creative nature and the overall flexibility of the field that Product Management may be the better route.
Anyone study and Pass the CISSP without having a Security Background?
DevOps
Did u get your A+ first?Applied for tons of help desk jobs and only got denied from one so far. I'm hoping this one company in particular hires me because they pay for certs and tuition.

Nah, studying for it right now. I've only ran into a few jobs that require it in my area. A couple of the ones that do require it have been in touch though so it doesn't seem to be necessary for help desk jobs.

I'm on techexams.net all the time, the best video resource named is the cybrary.it CISSP course used with the Sybex book.
Starting next week. I tried to get relocation but no dice since I'm literally moving 70-80 miles up north. They won't even pay for temporary housing. 
But all good. Some companies don't do that unless you are going across country or something.

think you can get a tax write off if you're moving more than 50 miles for work.
