What career fits me best?

Category: Other

JohnJohn


I'm athletic. im really good and bball and xc/track. im very personable. i'd love to do something sports related but i want to make at least $75,000 yearly...however i know most sports related jobs don't make much money. except professional athletes/big name college/sports coaches (which is unlikely for me)

i dont like science so any bio related job is a no.

im good at math

i was thinking accounting but i heard thats mostly desk work.

i was also thinknig a teacher and coach at the school, but that doesnt make a lot of money

bio is not my forte so any bio related career is out

The combination of being athletic and not liking science rules out a whole host of options that make $75k a year: personal trainer, sports medicine, physical therapist, occupational therapist.

Being good at math doesn't mean anything. The way you find a career that starts you off making $60-$70k is by focusing on core competencies and skill sets combined with various work experience. Don't pick a career solely for the money - otherwise you are looking at 40+ years of your life doing something that you loathe.

Go get a business degree in marketing or finance and you'll land a job at a Fortune 500 company making $48k to start. Find a good company that will invest in your MBA and you'll jump right up to $75k - $90k. Don't forget that the benefits are more important than the salary you make. (Medical, Dental, Vacation, Stock Options, 401k, Company Car, Expense Account, Disability Insurance...)
