Learn FORTRAN, and you’ll be set for life.

Tech support for factory machines. I used to work in a fairly modern (in terms of products) factory, and the SMT assembly machines were positively archaic. Most were decades old by the time I quit, they all had their own quirks, and very few people who could troubleshoot them. The factory was shut down every weekend, and getting the machines to talk to each other and the server on Monday mornings was a ritual just short of praying to the Omnissiah.

Being a monarch or some kind of royalty seems to be excellent financially and often overlooked.

If you really want IT. Then telecom

Most people in telecom are old and are analog phone people, they don’t know ip/sip and don’t want to learn.

It’s basically a small networking job that you never get calls on nights and weekends about and if you do it’s a system you can reboot remotely. If it’s not the system it’s a switch and its someone else’s job.

Telecom isn’t sexy but it’s still needed, no one’s going into it as it’s not ‘sexy’ and to be honest it’s easy AF.

Trades. Become an electrician or a plumber or any number of other skilled contractor position. Financially you’ll be set for life.

What country are you in?

Trades generally make a decent amount. Masonry, carpentry, welding, transportation, electrical, plumbing, waste management, etc all have decent pay rates in most first world countries with codes and regulations.

Communications and drone operators might have a future career, depending on the job and company.
