Look into the trades.

Rock solid employability, especially if you're competent in self-employment.

You get to experience, 1st-hand, middle-class & upper-middle-class prejudice/contempt/denigration-programming, too

( which is useful karmically: many of us are unconsciously-wired to buy-into class-system-based-"validity"/status,

and facing into karma, or, as Yehoshua "Jesus" benJoseph said the same thing, "taking up one's cross", as a means of destroying the unconscious-ignorances that undermine our Eternities/Souls/CellsOfGod in THEIR evolution is strategically wise, see?

I don't want my Soul/ChildOfGod EVER getting caught in some life due to its unconsciousness, ever again!

Rip the unconsciousness-rule "strategy" right out from the ground, you know?

I needed 7y of outright-homelessness to finally crack my unconscious-mind's sticking-to-class-prejudice,

and I still haven't ripped out all of the remnants,

but the core of it cracked a decade ago, and my life is free-er as a result, the Eternity I'm just a little participant in, is no longer "stuck on a rock, in the rapids" of Eternity/karma...

Facing into karma, as a means of freeing one's Soul can be immensely empowering.

Also, smart tradespeople outcompete many, being able to make/earn their economic-autonomy much quicker than the "professional" rat-race/treadmill people do.

( partly that has to do with a good trade ticket taking only 1-2y, whereas a 4y university-degree is .. worthless, economically, worse, it is tons-of-debt. )
