Are there any self respecting careers 4 black men without college degrees?

[FreshFromATL]

Yeah....ya'll need to stop recommending IT shyt to this nikka.

I was just about to say this because I don't understand why nikkas recommending dude to get into IT and he don't even know what the hell it's about. Just picking up a book, reading it and trying to learn IT won't do this nikka any good. He will, at the very least, have to go to school to study IT and be taught. But this nikka sound like he trying to take shortcuts and shyt.

 

[YouMadd?]

Look into Air Traffic Controller careers... Very respectable and great pay...

 

[duncanthetall]

so you are broke, barely working and have no education but you looking down on other cats who working. Some how you are to good to bag groceries

Step your game up son

Yeah this nikka talkin bout self respect and shyt. Ay. You know what'll give you some self respect. Bein able to provide for ya son. Being able to give him that extra something that you can't right now. Get ya ass up and get a job. Take some classes and don't bullshyt them.

Stop fukkin around get get on that money making mission. It aint no game out here in 2012, man. Take care of ya fukking self and ya own. Nobody else is gonna.

 

[TruStyle]

This clown got a 2 year old and said he don't wanna lose his dignity and self respect. He said he'd rather do something illegal. Ya cuz selling drugs or stealing is gonna make people respect you. I'm sure your son will be proud daddy was selling rocks and got locked up.

Stop trying to live the hip hop fantasy and be a fukking adult. Take a job and work fakkit

 

[Juliano Soprano]

I'm too old for school breh, and its too late.


I don't have the money for that shyt anyway.

got a seed, a mouth to feed.


I don't wanna be forced to get my Stringer Bell on tho man, I thought America was the land of promise and that voting for Obama was going to make everything okay

The American dream is the fact that you can go here:

Home - FAFSA on the Web-Federal Student Aid

Get the government to pay for that education, and when you graduate. Stop looking at the now and look at the future my nikka...In four years when you slangin' them rocks and get busted what you gonna say to your seed.




"I fukked up son, but America gave me no options "

You have no record, unlike my nikkas I grew up with that caught with multiple records when they were too young to know any better. You are in a winning situation my nikka. FASFA will pay for your whole education cause you broke with no record.

 

[SuburbanPimp]

Times is getting hard and I'm not making enough money cutting hair at my mans shop.....I only get a few heads a week

28 yrs old, plus I got a 2 yr old son, shyts cray


All a nikka got is a HS diploma and I don't have a criminal record. Decades ago that woulda been enough to



Am I gotta have to eventually hit up the block?


I swear its no hope for us.

Where you live breh?

Its always alot of jobs out here Texas (Dallas)....


I don't have my degree but I've worked at Geico, Esurance, Fossil, Blue Cross just because I have alot of good experience and references...

Its about Networking, and swallowing your pride. I took a customer service position at Geico just to get in the door when I was 22, I became a claims adjuster after a year and half. They paid for me to get my insurance license in 22 states. I used that and those licenses to get a better paying job at Esurance while beefing up my resume at the same time...

It would be cool, to have my degree but I work along side people all day who have their degrees and are doing the same jobs as me and making the same money or less than I do. Only difference is they always bytching about paying back student loans

 

[StraxStrax]

Actors and directors maybe.

 

[john goodman]

fukk college man... You already have a kid get that money now

Get put on with plumbing, carpentry or electrical work if you don't have the heart to launder money... Or join the military

This thread is the embodiment of the main problem of modern society. Everybody wants to be successful, but nobody wants to put the work in. I can't believe this dude has the audacity to be upset because people aren't bending over backwards to give him a handout.

 

[Mr Uncle Leroy]

the next steps.

1) put more ads for more customers for the barbering
2) find a part time job
3) work on an ebook for how folks can cut their own hair...could eat of the ebook if its good content and marketed well
4) see if you teach at cosmetology school
4) go back to school
5) save/get financial aid for school
6) major in nursing, accounting, engineering, etc
7) find an intership
8) work on a resume to convert skills from barbering to other fields

never go to sad street life...gotta be an example to the offspring...if it really comes to that...
1) move in with family
2) move in with bm...if its really cool and she cool.

also before moving forward
1) create a budget
2) eliminate unwarranted expenses
3) keep costs minimal
