Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?
This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Notes -
Sort of depends on what you're comfortable with ethics-wise.
For instance, I didn't go into Personal Injury law even though it promises to be lucrative because the entire area feels scuzzy and designed to take advantage of people at their most vulnerable.
But I found an area that pays well enough (if you put in the work) and doesn't require me to check my principles at the door.
I'd suggest that if you're excluding all other priorities and have lax but not completely discarded ethics, sales is the line of work that will end up providing the earning potential. If you're really good at it, you can move up to selling larger and larger ticket items and thus the commissions you receive will grow proportionally. Once you're at the level of, say, selling yachts to multimillionaires, and you've mastered the craft, I'd suggest that is likely the lowest effort/money ratio of most careers.
