You are fortunate to have a set of skills in demand so you can just pick up gigs. Unfortunately I became a lawyer, which is probably the most useless thing to study; should have learned HVAC repair or something.
You mention that becoming a lawyer is a useless thing. My (very far) removed perception has been that lawyers are in demand and tend to live relatively comfortable lives. It seems that many on the web also think so.
Is that generally the case? Or is it usually more parallel to your own experience?
From where I stand, it seems like law is lucrative in litigious countries like the US. Outside of that, law tends to be a really long and hard slog to the top.
used to, as an amateur in adolescence, along with tinkering with Linux, servers, etc., then continued to follow tech. then the tech boom happened well after. I can still read and modify some code for my web development needs, but at this point, that ship has sailed. I could have gone a number of different ways professionally, but due to a lack of personal boldness and poor parental guidance I took this path.
I am struggling to figure out what to switch to. years of unemployment, resets, switching careers once already, have taken their toll, and I am struggling to find the initiative to commit to a new profession that would take years to enter. ideally I'd find a business to get into.
