Which is best for me? Teacher/Principle, nurse, accountant, radiologist, pharmacist, photographer, or Business

I want to either be a teacher (and maybe eventually become a principle, nurse, accountant, radiologist, pharmacist, photographer or ba in business.

Here's a lil about me:
I love kids
I like to make a difference
I like helping others
I am very bright
I'd rather have a job where its busy than slow
I want a job that's helpful and useful to my life, not just others
I want a job that has good money
At this point of life (I am only 22) I want to learn...I am very curious.
I am still very confused of what I wanna be because there are so many jobs out there and I KNOW that I don't know all of them, that's what makes it so confusing-I don't want to miss out on a really cool job while going to school for something else.
I love pictures, and taking them
I like crafts
I like to be with my family
I'd rather work pt than ft but still make good money
I like math

The fact that you love kids, want to make a difference & helping others narrows your choices down to teacher & nurse. If you want something to do that allows you to be with your family (& being 22 already) would probably narrow your choice down to one (teacher) unless you have all the required prerequisites for a nursing career completed -- otherwise you'd be looking at another couple of years of going to school full-time to get your nursing degree. In some states, a teacher's certificate only requires a BA/BS and maybe a couple of extra courses (depends on the state).

You can take your love of photography and apply it as a hobby in your spare time, & sometimes that can turn it into a well-paying hobby depending on your talent, resources & contacts (studio & wedding photography can be quite lucrative).

A teaching career would be most fulfilling and allow you time for your family, along with summer's off (for family vacation & part-time summer employment). The money may not be as a good as for a nurse, but the trade-off is more schooling, more work hours afterwards & nights/weekends on shift work (read that as more away time from the family).

Whatever you decide (since ultimately it is what you choose to be & do for the rest of your life), I truly wish you the best of luck now & in the future!

Take heart, I didn't know what I wanted to be either (or what I wanted to do with the rest of my life) so I joined the Navy when I was 26 1/2, did my 20 years & then retired. I'm a government contractor now.

TYVM for the BA & 10 pts! YQW, it's truly my pleasure, as always, to help! Pull up a chair by the fireplace and grab "a listen" from one and all around U -- it can be an enlightening experience. Report It

I would consider teaching health or phys.Ed.
you can teach health. which sorta realtes to the nurse thing.
after years of teaching, you could try to be a principal.
have a side job, maybe running your own business taking professional pics.
idk, just an idea. i kinda combined it all.

If you like helping people then I suggest you go with becoming a nurse in a big city!!!

Only you can decide that and to begin with you are only 22 and are STILL in school, that confuses me.
If you are now 22 and still don't know what to do, you have wasted years of education, that you say you don't want to waste.

It was only late in life that my childhood ability to work with my hands, helped me into a job that I loved.
Prior to that I had a Career of a Yes-sir No-sir well paying job that nearly killed me due to stress and long hours.

Teachers don't make much money but they do work with children and do crafts. You could be a nurse and still work with children. Most nurses make more than teachers, but they do have to work nights and weekends.
