I’m 19-years-old and I live in the Midwest. I don’t like anybody around me, all my friends and I do is smoke weed, which I do because there is nothing better to do around me, and I love money, but don’t have any. What should I do with my life?

My personal answer to this question was to join the military. Wasn’t my kind of life, but the two years I gave to it were worth the discovery.

You love money, so obviously the military is out for you. What I would do is find a sales job. Get good at it. I had two sales jobs in my early twenties. I did Cutco knives, and later on Mazdas. Neither job lasted long but taught me important lessons about relating to humans.

And the money will make it easy for you to move.

Life in a small town or city is nothing like living in a big city. It’s much, much, much easier to make money and make good friends in a decently-sized city. After I left the military, I moved to Atlanta, still here after 12 years.

You can move back out when you’re ready to start a family and your parents are getting older and need you to look after them.
