People of Reddit that make a good living, what do you do for work? People of Reddit that make a good living, what do you do for work?

Hi I'm turning 26 next month, and I currently work a dead end job pretty much. I need to make more money to support myself but I don't know where to turn too. I'm not smart enough for school, so thats out of the question. Just curious what you guys do. Thanks!

Edit: Imo for me a good living is around 60k and up. And I plan on living my life by myself( no gf, wife/kids ect)



Why is american work culture so toxic? Why is american work culture so toxic?

I have been to multiple countries and the us is the only country where people place their job as the most important thing and their identity. Everywhere else working is just a means to live its not their purpose in life.

If someone wants to take a sabbatical from work people say they are not contributing to society and if someone is working but doesn’t have a high paying job they are shamed for it. Even healthcare is tied to your employment. I think it’s one of the reasons the us is statistically one of the least happy countries
