  • If it helps you at all, I believe in learning on the job.

    I didn’t know much about money or finance so I got a job as a teller, moved up until I felt I knew what I was doing.

    In a similar vein as you, I knew nothing of tools and working with your hands, so I became a mechanic, then a maintenance worker.

    And now I’m looking for an IT job. I never went to college but since highschool I’ve never stopped learning. And BTW I sucked at both fields when I started, but 2 years in you’ll figure it out. 5 years in you might be ready for your dream career, or moving on like me.

    To answer the question though I’d love to go to Mars! I think I’d be the kind of person who’d be good at being among the first. But I don’t think I’d be able to permanently say goodbye to the creature comforts of Earth. Especially pets.
