Help me with my Future! - General

As of right now, I'm 15, and I'm starting to think a lot about my future, and what I want to be after I graduate. I want a well paying job, but one that doesn't require College or University, I had Plumbing or Electrician in mind, but as far as I know Electrician is alot harder of a position to get into than plumber and pays a lot more ( I know this varies). There are alot of things I don't understand, but I want to have a goal set, so I can choose the right classes to take and something I will be able to accomplish. Any suggestions?

go to college

You'd still have to go to trade school for that, as far as I know. My father went to trade school and became an electrician but he said it was incredibly hard to find steady work. The pay is good though.

Do whatever you can to encourage people to slip tips into your plumber crack.

[QUOTE=TH89;24995000]Do whatever you can to encourage people to slip tips into your plumber crack.[/QUOTE] I really want to do this, it's much easier that being a licensed electrician.

going to college is probably the best choice you can make.

[QUOTE=Makol;24995088]going to college is probably the best choice you can make.[/QUOTE] It Just seems like alot of work to me, and I'm already been looking into trades, I'm even in Apprenticeship and Trades math, How far is that going to get me in collage?

Trust me. Go to college. Made the mistake of dropping out...Worst decision of my life.

[QUOTE=Kel|oggs;24995023]I really want to do this, it's much easier that being a licensed electrician.[/QUOTE] don't pick a career choice or whatever because it's easier than doing something else...

Become a prostitute.

Go to communism. [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Communism" - SteveUK))[/highlight]

College -> Apprenticeship -> Job -> Money :D

What's your real passion in life?

Why don't you want to go to College or anything?

Well here in Australia we have a thing called VCAL. During year 11 and 12 it's a mix between Maths, English, TAFE and working. It's a great program for someone who doesn't wish to go to University. VCAL lets you test out some areas in Trades such a plumbing, electricity and carpentry. It gives you a really great reference for when you complete year 12 and want to do TAFE full time.

College is important. Because if you don't you might not get a good job. And that would be bad. For you.

go into a trade lots of money, always in demand everywhere, you learn while you work

[QUOTE=poopsicle;24997105]Except TAFE is for losers.[/QUOTE] Wow nice. You'd be surprised how many people choose it over Uni. A lot of them will be more successful then people that go to university.

Go to a trade school. Also I hear there's decent money in air conditioning technician

[QUOTE=darcy010;24997268]Wow nice. You'd be surprised how many people choose it over Uni. A lot of them will be more successful then people that go to university.[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure here in WA, that only like 30 percent of graduating students go to university, or something like that.

I'll be honest, 65% of the reason of why I'm in college is for the drinking/partying.

Why would you aspire to be in either of those professions?

at least go to a city college

don't do anything because it doesn't matter.

[QUOTE=darcy010;24997268]Wow nice. You'd be surprised how many people choose it over Uni.
