So why are we pressurizing our kids to excel?
We should accumulate property and give it to them.
Rental collection is better than those kinds of work.
Of course they can do that kind of work for fun in addition to collecting rental.

This is the starting salary.
When they go to private practice then there is a potential of big bucks.
Potential only leh, with so much competition.

Hydrographic surveyor – $12,100

looks good?

A hydrographic surveyor specialises in precise positioning, data acquisition and processing in marine environments.

The role involves measuring and mapping the world's underwater surfaces and studying the morphology (construction) of the seabed. The information is used in:

the production of charts and related information for navigation;
dredging;
locating offshore resources (oil, gas, aggregates);
planning dock installations.
Hydrographic surveyors are expected to work in a wide range of differing situations and applications: from inland waters and rivers, to ports and oceans. The work may be onshore or offshore, depending on your area of specialism.

The role also demands an understanding of and consideration for environmental issues.

Hi Sir, for me, I try to strike a balance. we're still young, work hard when it calls for it. Stock up a few properties while u can afford to leverage and live a stress-free life after while collecting rents

IB, she must be around 16? dont pressure her too much. let her choose her own path
