i have recently decided to become a criminal (all other avenues have been explored and i have reached a dead end as to how to make my fortune - my minimum wage job isn't paying the bills - literally). however i'm a 'worrier', i tend to worry about the slightest of things - not a quality i think a criminal should have. so how can i stop worrying so i can be good at my future career?
thanks

suicide is an option....
you won't worry and crime rate won't go up!
You can't be serious.... so I won't be.
If you are seek counseling, you have issues.

Twister,
Most of the criminals I have known "self-medicate" to relive their anxiety or guilt (or whatever)
Popular choices start with alcohol and run the full range of illegal street drugs. (I mean, why would a criminal worry about breaking the law?)
BTW, most criminals don't seem to make a fortune at it either - if you want an "Informational Interview" you can usually arrange it with a local "Scared Straight" program.
How to make a good living? Well, it depends on what else you might have an aptitude for. I suggest taking an assessment test (Myers-Briggs is the best known) and finding something that will help you focus your energy and talent in a more "socially acceptable" area. There are some really good choices - my cousin recently became a Union pipe fitter - sounds strange, but he LOVES it.
Best of luck!

Obviously you are not serious. You may need to get another job, either one that pays better or as our son did another part time job until you can decide what "permanent career" you want.
I too WAS a worrier, but all that does is depress you and make you ill.
Learn to take ONE day at a time and realize that what happens will happen whether you worry or not.
Find something that you like to do or are good at it and go for it with all of your might.
Good luck.

Such a decision will come to no good end. Rather consider career training. Consider budgets. If you know where your money is going, then you can make it work for you. By making your money work for you and saving, you can be financially independent. If you don't like your job, then you can quit and find another at your leisure. Crime is a bad idea unless you just like the idea of jail and/or prison as a home.
