What do you guys do? I need some inspiration and ideas on places to apply to because nowhere pays around here in the Jersey area. I'm looking to work somewhere that makes $15+/hr so I can use that money and invest in real estate so I don't have to work a shit job for the rest of my life lol |

I work in retail and make about $12.00 an hour. However, I never get to work more than 30 hours a week and have no benefits. If I lived alone I wouldn't be in very good shape. |

It's all about where you live.
$15 is minimum wage here, and working 80 hours a week you probably couldn't even afford rent. From my perspective, going to college for a degree is the main way to get higher paying jobs, but you can also look up trade jobs. Look up stuff like plumbing, electrician work, etc |

Without a degree or other significant skills youd be looking at labor jobs. |

It varies on a lot where you live because of the cost of living and the minimum wage. Life isn't meant to be easy for us man. I live in Massachusetts and minimum wage is $12 here but it sucks cause the cost of living is through the rough and taxes... forget about it. Personally I think your best bet is staying at a job and getting your raises but I don't know how that works in other places here in MA you get a raise when you hit 3 months and then every year after. That's helped me a lot. |

It's all based on location considering different affording costs. I work in a Verizon corporate Store(Not a 3rd Party) and it's 12.50 and hour but the commission makes up for it tremendously |
