i would like to finish school as soon as possible because i want to help my family out with debts and other financial issues. they have worked very hard now it is my turn to give back. i would like to get the best job with at least four years of college. what are some hot jobs right now? my interests are music, biology, health, and physical education. most of the careers i’m looking at such as physical therapy, nutrition, dentistry require at least a masters degree and up. any help would be appreciated. it is not that i don’t like more years in school, i just want to help my parents out. they have worked too hard for so long. so any jobs you can think of that require at least a bachelors degree is fine with me.

Based on data from the US Census – you’re looking at the following starting salary return on your ideas here:
* music – $35,900 (a bachelor’s degree in music is the required education for exactly no jobs. Talent is required in that industry and a degree in Music Education is required to teach. I own one of these.)
* biology – $38,800
* health – $34,900 (as an educator)
* physical education – $34,900 (same job as health ed)
You’ve actually picked some of the lowest.
The highest for new bachelor’s degree grads are:
* Physician Assistant – $73,400 (not exactly easy to get in)
* Engineering (any specialty area) – $53,900 – $63,200
* Computer Science (not IT) – $55,900
* Nursing – $54,200 (this one tops out early though – there’s not much room to advance the salary without a master’s)
* Economics – $50,100
* Physics – $50,300 (not public school teachers)
That’s average starting salaries for various majors and not the wages of specific jobs. If you get a PhD in economics and then become a bartender then you’ll only earn what bartenders earn. If you get a bachelor’s degree in music and then go to law school you’ll earn what lawyers earn. The bachelor’s degree is only one part of the earnings equation.

petrol engineering. $70k annual
but there are shortcuts in getting an education, you can also be a gang member or a drug dealer, but that’s not recommended
