What will be this generation's "If you want a good job just go to college!" career advice?
What will be this generation's "If you want a good job just go to college!" career advice?
When I was in school, I was always told "If you get a college degree you'll on average make 500k more over the life time of your career regardless of what you get your degree in!"
Then as I finishing school, it was all about "If you get into tech you'll make big bucks and always have jobs!"
Both of those have turned out not great for a lot of people.
Then whenever women say they're struggling with money online, they get pointed to OF... which pays nothing to 99% of creators. Also very presumptive to suggest that, but we don't even need to get into that.
So is there a field/career strategy that you feel like is currently being over pushed?
(My examples are USA, Nevada/Utah is where I grew up, if maybe it's different in other parts of USA even.)
You're viewing a single thread.
No one seriously thinks OF is a viable career path do they? Sex work has never been a career thing, at best you get a couple years of good earning and then you get forgotten. At worst, you get a pittance and mental health issues.
Tech has worked out for lots of people, just because some are laid off every so often, doesn't mean the rest aren't doing really well.
OF is a lottery for pretty girls or for people in very niche communities.
Like if your thing is wearing girly socks and mushing Jello between your toes, you could probably make some money on onlyfans but just being a generic 6.5 out of 10 or better looking? No chance in hell.
