if you're going to have to work, it makes sense to lean into something that you can actually handle.
Some guys really like working with their hands and having little projects to get through. so working a trade where there is something a bit different each day where you use your tools and knowledge to fix and build is good. they tend to like higher energy situations if they go into construction.
if you know you aren't that type, then you aim for something in an office. You don't have to go to college to work in an office and places that aren't worried about you asking for extreme raises based on a degree will hire you to do pretty basic office work.
i randomly got hired to work for a psychic at just above minimum wage, 6 hours a day 5 days a week. it was a realllllllly comfy job. Practically got paid to hang out on 4 chan.
