I graduated with two Bachelor degrees. I haven't had a stable career. I am frustrated because I am having a hard time making my ends meet.
The main frustration is that I am just a typist that does not require a college degree, which is very low paying job.
How did you succeed with what type of job to pay your bill?
Does it require a Bachelor degree?
I don't have any money to travel, buy a car, buy a house or even start my own family (which is my dream).

Maybe you should join the military!
I have 2 degree's (chemistry and education), I was going to be a teacher but I joined the Coast Guard and I'm doing pretty good. I'll eventually get to teach at the Academy. I'll never go to Iraq. I own a car, my own home and don't really have any bills.
You have to look at what you majored in. Is it a crappy major like psychology or art? People seem to think that getting a degree gives you a better life. NOT if you major in a crap subject! Go back to school and get a good degree in a science or business. Look at what kind of jobs are out there and what kind of degree's they are looking for and work on getting those kinds of degree's.

Call up your college's career office or their alumni affairs office. They should be happy to help an alum find a decent job. After all, who wants to go to a college whose alums can't find decent jobs after graduating? It's in the college's best interests to help you find a good job.
I have a physics degree and I work in education - there's a strong need for people with strong science backgrounds in education these days. Unfortunately the pay isn't great, but I can't complain too much.

Decide what you do best.
Many people try sales - even part time at the department store in cosmetics, or jewelry which are part wages and part commission.
I loved accounting in high school, so I studied that in college. I worked my way through college by first getting my real estate license, and selling real estate on the side. It was very hard and competitive, but it got me through school.
I worked my way through graduate school by working for the US government which had benefits. Many county and state offices paid better and had even better benefits, but not openings when I was trying to get the job. I usually got a job in accounting whenever I needed one, and admit that I prayed my way to many interviews.
GOD bless us one and all, always.
