while yeah, im not scared of fire, and would probably make a hell of a firefighter, I wouldnt be able to think that if something happened to me while on the job, how would my family be? you know?

Wayfast, perhaps before you go to college, you should join the military. They will pay you to learn a new trade, give you clothing, a place to stay and food to eat three times a day. You don't even have to accept a combat arms position either - choose a desk job or mechanics position or something. I honestly think this may be a good first step for you.

And if, God forbid, something does happen to you, your family will be covered.

Once you complete a few years of the military you can either go to school at that time, or if you had time while in, finish up whatever you started while in the military. There is no race to finish school and get a job. Get the skills and experience you can really use, while you have the chance, then jump into a career, get married, family, and so on. I know its tough at your age to see all this, and we all have probably heard the same thing when we were young, but honestly - don't worry about focusing on a career just yet. Graduate High School (and try to do a better job with your spelling), then go to college or the military. Keep career ideas in mind, but dont get hung up on them, making you miss other opportunities.

Go Army! Hua!
