For the purpose of this question, the target age range is 20-30. Asking because I feel like I’m wasting my youth.

    Learn a paid skill you can do with your hands. Welding, painting, HVAC, long-line fishing, building PC’s, anything. Get proficient.

    You may never use it again. Hopefully you develop a skill-set that pays you better/is less physically demanding/is sexier.

    But you will never starve and may be able to feed your family even if your primary occupation falls out of favor.
