Here are some careers that I think will have good prospects in the forseeable future:
-Physical/occupational therapist
-Pharmacist (although I’ve heard it’s getting more competitive to find a good job now – not sure if that’s true)
-Doctor
-Nurse
-Radiologic Technician
-IT guy for a hospital (programmer/analyst or database admin)
-Go into the military, get a security clearance and some technical skills, then get out and go work for a defense contractor (probably will take a long time but the military seems to be where a lot of $$ are going to be going)
-Teacher; Temecula and Murrieta teachers make 60K-70K for 9 months/year of work from what I’ve heard.
-Find some field that you know a lot about and become a middleman or broker that finds customers and works with contractors to get the jobs done. Many people make mucho $$ as middleman in various industries – almost every industry has them.
