Oil Rigs work? is a post from: Oil Rig Jobs

I’m in first semester of grade 12. I live in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. I get good grades when I apply myself, but I don’t really see any point to school, therefore I rarely apply myself. I have a loving family and will probably live at home for another 4-6 years. Having said that, that gives me 4-6 years to prepare financially for living on my own. If I work out at the oil rigs in Alberta for say 2-3 years and make over 100k, I could put that money in a savings account for a few years. Let’s say I’m 22 and have 100k in a savings account. If I leave that money in there and let the interest build for a few years say at 4% annual compound interest I would have about 112k in the bank. This doesn’t even account for the money I could save working from ages 22-25. Anyways so I’m 25 and have about 120k in the bank (save 8000 at least from ages 22-25 from part-time job). I buy a $100,000 home with 5% down payment for 20 years. The trick is I wouldn’t have to pay for any of my down payment bills because I’d have 120k in the bank and the 5k interest I’d be making a year in my savings account would suffice for the 5k down payment bills a year for my house. So that would leave with insurance bills, electricity bills, gas bills, food bills, telephone bills, etc. but NOT house bills.

Christian Horizons is a great place for people with no college or university education to make a living. Starting pay is 16$/hour once you’re 18. If I managed to work 30 hours a week (and that’s not even that much) by age 22 I’d be making 25k a year. Plus you get raises over the years (my mom makes 20.5$ an hour). I’m sure 25k a year would be enough to live a comfortable frugal lifestyle. If I worked 40 hours a week at 16$/hour I’d make over 33k a year which would be even better. When I’ve worked there for around 15-20 years I’d be making 20$/hour therefore if I worked 40 hours/week = 41.6k a year. This is good money for no post-secondary education!

I’m not really into having a super fancy house or car. I just want enough so that I can live comfortably and be debt free without wasting years of my life in college or university. Does this sound like a good plan? Even if I did have a family, my wife could have a part time job to make ends meet. I like educating myself for real life use. Other than that, it’s just a number on a paper for me.

Which begs the question, what do you think of post-secondary education? Would you advise me to go based on what I just told you?

*Note: Age 22-25 after working in the oil rigs would provide even more income which could be saved into my bank account so I could buy even better than a $100,000 home.

If you can earn 100k a year then you should do that for as long as you can and live on as little as possible. If you earn 100k a year for 5 years that’s 1/2 million dollars. If you buy a 200,000 dollar home and put the rest of that money in some good growth stock mutual funds earning between 8-12% interest when you get ready to retire you will be a multi-millionaire. The math is very sound. And college is not for everyone.

I can tell you that having a college degree will open doors for you that otherwise wouldn’t be opened, it is not necessary to be successful financially I know lots of broke doctors, and lots of rich farmers. A degree does not equal success. It seems as though you have a good level head and you will be successful at what you do.

Post-secondary is unnecessary. What do you think? is a post from: Oil Rig Jobs

off shore oil rigs …. Looking for a job for hubby? is a post from: Oil Rig Jobs

Some background information about me:
I earned my bachelor’s degree from the University of Miami in 2006 and have had job experience in sales, construction, and the legal industry. In the fall of 2009 I dropped out of my first year of law school. I cant really stand office work and am looking for something physical where I can make a decent living. My mother’s cousin (who I don’t know) works on an offshore rig and after reading into it I became interested.

So if anybody has any advice on where I can go or what I can do to make this a reality. Let me know. Thanks

Going to be real tough right now thanks to obama and sillyczar. There are about 12000 experienced hands out there drawing unemployment waiting to get back to work and no real hopes of it happening any time soon.

I would advise maybe looking into some of the service companies websites and their career listings. As you spend time there you can progress towards the OS end of things while networking with customers and rig hands. You might find something you like better.
