I work for a ISP and Cloud solutions provider for small to large sized businesses, headquartered in Atlanta. My dept manages the inventory: receiving, testing and deploying equipment.
I enjoy the job because it's low key and my boss gives us autonomy but I need more $$$. It'll have been a year in April. I want to have my CCNA by then and if they not talking more money I'm gonna look for some Network Admin gigs. Shout outs to the Information Technology thread. Good info there for those in or considering the field.

I have ownership stakes in a motel and a restaurant. Most of my time is spent managing the motel. I am also a registered investment adviser but I don't do a lot of work in that field at this time.
I "make" next to nothing because I reinvest everything back into the businesses. I have side jobs that pay me roughly 10 thousand a year so I can reinvest the business income. 27 years old.

Most of these CG/CPG sales management pipelines promote from within. So you start off as a sales associate, then work your way up sales district leader/territory sales manager/etc. To get your foot in the sales associate door, not much is needed. You've gotta be personable and flexible pretty much. EJ Gallo/Phillip Morris/PepsiCo are some of the major players in various segments, and always have openings somewhere.
I did my bid with one of these for ~5 years before deciding to head back to school and work on my PhD, so I've got a few more years of ~30k before I clear ~150k.

Believe it or not very little to be honest.depending on if you go on premise(bars, restaurants,) or off premise( grocery stores, liquor stores) you may need a restaurant background etc. for off premise you it doesn't matter because most companies start people off as a merchandiser or sales rep in order to learn the business

Right now I'm talking with a traveling agency and will be doing it as soon as they find something in the areas I want to work. They will give you a stipend for housing and food which will be tax free, but pay you a low hourly wage which will be taxed. They pay weekly and from what I was told the average is 1200-1500 weekly with room to increase pay the more you travel. I have a Georgia and Alabama license right now and will probably get other state licenses if it's something I want to do for a while.

Don't underestimate government jobs. It's hard to get in but once in, it's a great place to retire from. Unfortunately the job itself is monotoned but that only matters to people that care. I have a buddy that works for the DMV at their corporate office in Sacramento. He sits at a desk and surfs the internet and gets paid to do an hour of work at most.

That's my guy Gil, we went to high school together at Loomis. His lil' bro Eric went there too and both them boys went Ivy for undergrad and grad school.
Just had drinks with him and his wife at my bar a couple weeks ago. So damn proud of dude, one of the smartest, most humble human beings I know.
