I never understood the “job” thing unless you have very specialized skills. I just worked for myself starting at age 26.
Had a degree in Sociology, went into music, then real estate. Mostly retired at 60, but investing is too much fun to give up entirely.
I have many friends of all types. The ones who ran businesses or worked for the government have ended up in the best positions in general.
I have a half-brother that had a Master’s Degree in History.
He became a Big Rig truck driver, Long Haul.
He loved it...................
