Advice on Expanding Career

Cluttered. One part says I should go to cooking. Another part says interior design. Other part says industrial design.

I have soft spot for these three.

If you get the chance to further studies with minimum impact, go for it. I just think that in your current role you are exposed to clients and different sorts of people, so at some point someone may come along to you with an opportunity that you may or maynot be looking for.

Not many people stay in the one job their whole life these days anyway because other opportunities usually present themselves along their career path, you will be no different ;-)

I'm just a bit concern with how my career and finance structure going to look like in the future. Thus I thought maybe it's wise to draft a plan starting from now. Whilst I'm still young.

My boss and also my marketing manager once asked me if I would like to be a part time real estate agent since I work in a real estate industry and I was also a business minor - I declined. It's a great way to make money but seeing how my colleagues have to face snobby rude rich people all the time, eh no.

Few of my friends recommend me to build my own graphic design firm but I have never been crazy about opening a design firm.

But yeah, Daz, you've made a lot of good points. Maybe I should just wait and see. Maybe I'll get a better and clearer picture on my career in another year or two.

Thanks Airborn and Daz.
