So I'm struggling to decide whether I want a job that pays really well (like consultancy or accounting) or a job that is really enjoyable (like creative writing or animal care). Do you know of any jobs that are the perfect in between, a decently fun job that pays well?
Thanks in advance! :smile:


how old are you?

How is that relevant?


it just sounds like you have a long time to decide what you want to do.
i.e. you're probably quite young and still have academic decisions to make.

I think primary school teaching. You get good holidays, get to work with kids and the pay is 22-30K a year!
For me it's maths. I couldn't dream of anything more entertaining than mathematics, and maths graduates are one of the most employable in the work field.
Depends what your interests are, but I would definitely say that medicine fits this criteria.

Try different quizzes online to match you up with what you enjoy and look at the salaries.

Medicine sounds like it could be something but who knows.

Personally for me, I was lucky that I enjoy problem solving, puzzles and technology. I found that I really enjoy programming and other computer based things and the career is also well paid.

Thanks for the suggestion, I never thought of that!

Hopefully you find something. I thought that's what most people did to get an idea. Obviously tho, read about what the job includes before plunging in and going for it :biggrin:
