    I think the post above yours says it all really, my interests are not going to help here.

    I would prefer being my own boss though.

    if you really want but I was thinking more along the lines of as many as you wanted.
    You want us to type out all the professions that exist?

    I was refering to what you said to SN asking if you wanted us to type out professions yet we had no idea what your list was already or was it that you have not thought about it and wanted someone else to do the work for you?

    well it does seem you have a lot of time on your hands, to go to the bother of quoting three separate posts and still end up not being helpful.

    To save me a bit of time, post 25 now applies to you too.

    It took me less time to quote three posts than it would to write you a list of careers. Good luck with your list.
  • To the OP - you need to find a proper online types dynamic indicator test.
    This is not a personality test but one that looks at your strengths & weaknesess.
    It will then list the sorts of jobs you would be good at based on your skills and talents.
    So if it turns out that you are a creative/ideas type then you might want to follow an entrepreneurial route and so on. If nothing else it will give you some ideas to work on about what career will suit you.
    In general, if you are doing any kind of study for a career then you do need to enjoy it or it becomes very difficult to keep going.
    One thing to consider though is that most of the jobs that we will be doing in 10 years do not exist yet. 5 years ago no one hired social media specialists but now they are in high demand. You might want to look at your skills set and try and match them to emerging career areas.
    There are three types of people in this world. Those who can count and those who can't.

    That requires no qualifications,





    but does require some smarts.
  • That requires no qualifications,

    but does require some smarts.

    And the ability to be able to do some research all by yourself. ;)
    If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.

    You want to be your own boss, but you are going to set a person specification that requires you to have a qualification?

    Who's going to do the interview that you expect to pass?

    I think you're either a troll, or, if you really want some help, you need to think about what level of intelligence you might have, because if you aren't clever enough for certain jobs, what's the point of people suggesting them?

    e.g Particle Physics Researcher at CERN: Requires PhD in Atrophyics & minimum of 3 cited papers. Are you going to try that? :cool:

    This thread has become rather weird.

    The OP asks for a list of good jobs and what training you need for them, but does not indicate even vaguely in what field or with what interests.

    And THEN says that they want to be their own boss anyway. So what would be the point of the qualifications?

    Without any vague indication of a general field of employment it's a bit hard to give career advice.
