Hey guys, I apologise if this is the wrong sub but I need not only some opinions but some financial opinions as well. I'm 19 and this is my first year of university. So I'm from a country where the first year of university is free, followed by the following years not being so and I take pre-medical science with the aspirations of going on from there into medical school. Unfortunately as I'm halfway through semester 2 I've realised my grades are not gonna suffice and I will 99% not make it in, which I am okay with. The thing is though, I have always been obsessed with the concept of money and after joining this sub, it has honestly made it worse lol. Houses in my city are on average $1,000,000 and I don't know how I'm going to do it in the future. I work a part time job about 15hours which rakes me in on average $300 a week. I have my own car worth around $10k paid off in full and I live with my parents rent free. I'm sorta lost on what I want in a career and I still wanna work in the health and fitness sector. But I'm worried I will not be financially stable in the future because I won't be in medicine. Now I have though about becoming a physiotherapist and then a personal trainer afterwards and coinsiding the two (I'm a gym freak lol) but I feel so lost in life and I don't know what I want to do with myself.
The fee's of a physiotherapist course in my country (4 years) will add up to around $30,000 and a personal trainer course I believe is roughly $5k. When I saw my grades will not suffice I am sitting at B's and B+'s (our GPA goes up to 9, which leaves me sitting on a 6) So I'm currently still enrolled in pre-med basically waiting for the semester to end and to get my academic transcript so that I will be able to get into physiotherapy but I can't help but feel I'm wasting my time here as I am at the point where I no longer enjoy what I'm learning. There's 8 weeks until finals and I just want to be out and have the next year start so I'm not behind everyone else. Any opinions/thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
