You’re 15. Give yourself some time to grow. Geez man.
It’s good you are thinking of the future. Whatever job you get, you can even start now, pay yourself first. Save and invest as much as you can. Learn about investing. You could just go with an index fund. The sooner you start, the longer you will give your money to compound. Making money is important, but keeping your money is just as important.
Good on you for thinking about the future. You are young. You have plenty of time to figure out your career choice. You can get better at math through practice. There are many, many careers that don’t involve blood or teeth.
There is hope, but hope is not a plan.
Teach English , a lot people still want learn English
As your first job and after of that u can move to another better with the experience
You can do whatever it is you want bro, if you need to be good at math learn math. People who are naturally mechanically inclined would make good mechanics but that doesn’t mean only those people can be mechanics, anyone can learn any skill or go into any field if you put in the time and effort

15, start out getting a job at a local grocery store, I believe they can hire a 15 year old. Set a goal on what you want to study at graduation and see what extra help programs you can get into.
construction
Investment baker sounds good. You can bake a lot of investment cakes.
Not that much money in baking anyway.
Bro, with this attitude, you will not become anything. To master any skill, you have to work hard, whether that is an easy skill or a complex skill. Due to so much competition, you must work hard to be good at any skill. If you want to be average skilled, you will be broke like your parents.
Im going to throw it out there and say you aren’t dumb if you’re willing to admit you dont know everything.
If I were you I would type in trade jobs and look in the state you’re in. Find one that interest you and watch youtune videos of their day to day life to get more of an idea of what you want to do. After that learn everything you can about the trade that interest you.
You got 3 years before absolutely changing your life for the better so keep your nose clean and in the books to work on your weaknesses.
I didn’t go to college because I didn’t think I was smart enough and math was my worst subject. Don’t be me. As I worked a secretarial job all my life I saw people who were dumber than I was make more money because they had a degree.
Get a degree!
Learn how to budget money. Don’t overspend.
You can do it!
United States Senator? U.S. House of Reps? POTUS?
How are you at lying through your teeth, dividing America and blaming the ‘other team’?
With your qualifications, politics is right up your alley. Either party, because Both Red and Blue sheep believe any lie as long as it’s a lie they want to hear.
You are not dumb. Strike that out of your mind completely. There’s no skill that’s beyond you, it just takes practice and applying yourself. The best thing you can do is to put yourself in a position to get closer to your goal. So focus on college and getting into a school. Just knock out the things you can and it’ll all fall into place.
The real question is, what can you do consistently and even master that can earn you a dignified living despite your state of being dumb. 🤔 Let me think about that.
Study hard in school as it will open up doors for you. You don’t need to do well in school and could do something unrelated but try and pick something that interests you that you do well. Trades is also an option.
You know more than half the population is dumb? You know that bell curve teachers grade on? That my friend is based on IQ.
They’re more good paying jobs for dumb people than good paying jobs for smart people.
The trades, undesirable jobs, labor jobs all can pay really well if you play your cards right.
Dude, I suck at math but excel in the arts and writing when I put my mind to it. It just comes naturally to me. Find what you’re good at and stick with it. You’re only 15 so you have time.
Have you considered being a pilot?
Skilled trades. Join a union. While everybody else is racking up student loans for a useless degree, you could be making money as an apprentice.
Check out your local chapter of the International Union of Operating Engineers. It’s pretty chill, useful skills, not a lot of backbreaking labor like construction, very good pension and annuity plans.
after hs graduation, ditch college n join a trade school.
I nannied a lot. Any job is good. I learned a lot at my grocery courtesy clerk job
My brother in law had no degree and was an electrician when he married my sister. Now the dudes the vice president of that same company.
It’s never about degrees or academic accolades.
It’s about who you know, how hard you work, how well you work woth others and the energy you bring.
Don’t call yourself stupid, because you’re not. You can accomplish a lot in life without a degree. You don’t have to be a scholar to be successful.
I always get investment advice from my baker. She usually recommends hostess for some reason. You can do it.
Try to be a little easier on yourself, especially at such a young age! You don’t seem dumb at all. You have enough foresight to be posting to the internet looking for suggestions about future careers! You seem to be pretty introspective have a general idea about what you want. I sure didn’t think that far ahead at your age.
Be easy on yourself and following what you are interested in. I did terribly in all my high school classes, they aren’t a good predictor of success, getting a “good” job, or indicate that you are “dumb”. At your age just try to do you best in classes and follow what your interested in.
Also, not sure exactly what type of background investment bankers have, but I know they are not often math wizards.
You are only 15 – you still have plenty of time to take school seriously, learn to study, and apply for universities. Usually business is a good way to make good money without pursing graduate or doctoral degrees.
Otherwise, trades I heard make good money.
Tiktok influencer?
Jokes aside, I don’t know You but I’m pretty sure you are not dumb, listen, I thought that I was awful at maths, I always went like that, I choose a career without math, but then I change to a engineering degree and math was a must, I just start to take it serious, and then I become pretty good at it. This doesn’t means you will be good at math, what I’m trying to say is that maybe what’s happened to you is that you are not really learning at whatever you try to learn, I’d encourage you to try the Feynman method to comprehend whatever you wanted to learn, and after that you could choose better
Drive a truck or US Congress.
You can get lots of jobs if you’re dumb. Try being the traffic sign holder for a road construction crew for a summer.
trucking. Comfy job actually
