Career Advice for a Son or Daughter? - Rick Ackerman -

I would suggest becoming a field technician in geology, environmental sciences for industry and forestry. That is "and" not "or". Cross-training will become far more important in a declining job market.

The future is in those fields that few if anyone wants due to obvious lack of comfort. The fields must be such that automation is difficult to impossible to replace people under today's technology.

Repair services will become more important as the economy dries up forcing repair rather than replacement. Even the radio/TV repairman might come back in vogue.

Food production aka going down on the farm will always be in demand. Specialized agriculture (higher end goods) will find buyers as not everyone will be penniless.

Except for highly specialized jobs, a college degree is worthless. Take only the courses that are cost effective and buy books. It has always been possible to get a sound education by self-study.

All jobs are honorable. Be a garbage collector while you study. Take the jobs nobody wants as they tend to be far more stable and available. Eschew education debt first, last and always. College debt is equivalent to paying exorbitant fees for a job you probably won't like. Live as cheap as possible and invest your meager after tax discretionary income wisely.

Learn as many trades as possible. The jack-of-all-trades seldom goes hungry. Learn some old-time domestic skills, home-brewing, wine-making, cooking, gardening, food preservation, carpentry, etc. This goes with living cheaply.

Always remember, the employer needs a good employee; be that good employee. Avoid whenever possible any union affiliation.

Never take on a business or life partner because you need one. Should you fail and take one on, you will become an indentured servant. Affiliate only when it is to your clear advantage (short-term and especially long-term). And then make sure it is to their advantage too. You will find some that prefer servitude and if this happens, be very good to your servant and reap complete loyalty.

And then I would give my sons and/or daughters a copy of "The Richest Man in Babylon", by George Clason. You can download it for free off the web. Is is easy reading, fairly short (70+ pages) and the lessons are easy to understand. Although written back in the 20's, everything is just as applicable today with one slight modification. The book presupposes gold as currency. Nowadays, consider the gold/silver as collateral for a loan of currency.

Début de l'article :Here’s some bracing news for the college crowd: There are 115,520 janitors in the U.S. with bachelor’s degrees or more. Just as surprising is that, even though 30% of the adult population has college degrees, only 20% of the jobs available require one, according to an article by Daniel Greenfield in Frontpage magazine. Students may not be aware of these depressing facts, but they clearly imply that most of the degrees they are now seeking will be largely valueless when they graduate. It’s poss... Lire la suite
