There Could Be A Definite Answer To What Should I Do After Highschool

By Nickolas Anderson


There could be a clear answer to, 'What should I do after highschool', provided that a young person has parents who are willing and able to continue funding living tuition and perhaps even motoring expenses. In such fortunate cases it could even be possible to spend a gap year seeing the world, as privileged young people traditionally do. However, such privileges belong to a rather small minority of the human population.

The majority have to face more pressing questions of finance in addition to the various options and directions that need to be considered. In many cases the time may be drawing near when hard pressed parents feel that they have fulfilled their obligation to educate their child. They may now look for some recompense and suggest that their offspring find employment.

In most countries there are jobs that are filled mainly by young people. Waitresses can earn reasonable wages when they are supplemented by tips and the same applies to bar staff. The problem with these jobs is that they do not provide great prospects. In most cases they pay just enough to cover living expenses and little prospect of increasing significantly. The stress of the work that is needed to generate just enough income leaves little energy or time for other things.

Earnings are barely sufficient to cover expenses. To increase earnings a person might have to put in extra hours and this will make it difficult to engage in any further training or study for qualifications that might help one towards a better future through financial freedom. The answer could be to start an online business enterprise whilst still young that could provide an income either in its own right or as a way of funding professional studies after school.

Selling is not a new way of making money but a very old one. A salesman needs a good product to sell and then he can do well if he has a successful sales technique. In the new Internet era there are both new products and new ways of selling that have become available. Like chess this way of making money is not age sensitive. Some young people can sell well and so can some older people.

Young people can easily be tempted by what seem to be good earnings without realizing that jobs all have earnings ceilings. Lawyers and accountants may be paid very little when they start out but wise advice will persuade them to stick with a profession in which the sky may be the limit as far as earnings go. Even if one does not have the means to get into a profession there are business opportunities that enable people to build an income that keeps growing.

Some online business models, like that offered by Vemma, offers opportunities for young entrepreneurs to start their own business using a model that has already been developed. Quality products that appeal to young and old can be sold. A system of referrals works so that a residual income method can be developed as sales expand. If such a business is started towards the end of a high school career it can fund further education whilst still continuing to grow.

Senior students can answer the question, 'What should I do after highschool?', for themselves even before leaving school. By enrolling in the program and starting to sell the quality products whilst still at school a steady income can be built up. It will continue over the years to come whilst further qualifications are obtained, opening the way to further possibilities.
