My name is Ryan, and I have been posting on here every once in a while for a long time. I am a senior in high school this year. I don't know what I want to do after high school, but I need to decide. I want to have a job that makes good money to support a family, but also not a job that I have to go to college forever. I want a job that I can be home with my family as well. I want to have a job that is based around sports, but I dont know what I should look at. Any thoughts?


I'm gonna let this float for a bit, but I changed the thread title a bit. I just wanted to make sure users weren't imagining this to be a life or death situation and wanted the thread to more aptly describe what it was about.... - Scoot

Assuming you have adequate grades, apply to IU Bloomington. They have a pretty good sports management program there that might interest you. I dug up the website for you...

I taught music for $30 an hour, but I have no idea if that applies to you or not.

Unfortunatley if you haven't applied yet its too late. Regular decisions came out this week. I'm a senior too, and i got screwed by a lot of my top choice schools (gtown, duke, tufts, uva). I'm choosing b/w Mich honors and Emory. If you did apply and got into IU, I've got at least 10 friends going I could set you up with as a roomate.
My cousin dropped out of school after his freshman year and is now doing well for himself selling exotic cars. Idk what thats like, it sounds cool though.

Whatever school you get into, I'd go exploratory business. It allows you to go into a lot of different field, and it never hurts to have a business background even if you choose to do something different.
