Whats up peeps!
I am currently a sophomore in high school looking into what i want to be in life. I have loved music pretty much since I was born. What are professions in life that have something to do with music/sound? What are some courses/colleges i should attend? |

| You can earn a good living as an engineer or a teacher. Carreers you should NOT actively persue unless you want to live in a cardboard box and eat kraft dinner twice a week; DJ, recording artist, singer, performer, etc. |

| Music for hobby, other for life, IMO. Anything in the arts is going to be very difficult to get PAID. |

yes, but if you do that hundreds of thousands of dollars job while pursuing your other dreams as a hobby, you might be able to retire early. |
