You will most likely make 12 to 14/hour at most and even then is hard to find a job. Do yourself a favor if you want a career take the right program meaning it will take you at least 2+ years in BCIT you might even need 4 to 5 years for some programs.
What you need a clear head as to what you really want to do and prepare to spend the time and effort to it. Not posting on RS. Also know your own limits. That's the most important part. If you aren't the smart type maybe you will be stuck with what you do. But so what! Save up and you can still have a happy life. If you aim for too high and your don't have the ability to do it, you will never make it.
Just remember if you work hard enough put the effort in even as a data entry guy you can get promoted say supervisor, controller. Just need to put the effort. So I think you really need look deep down and feel and be honest about your own ability.
Long ago I was like you. Always blame others for me not making more money, not getting a better job. Then I started traveling saw the world with my own eyes and realize there are tons of ppl's lives worse than mine. Sure I might not make a lot money, I might not be smart, I am not good at studying, I have eye issue which prevented me from driving and only seeing 50% of what normal ppl see. However, I have a decent job, family and friends that cares. So I work hard at my job and so far I am doing pretty well myself. I feel pretty proud of where I got myself.

where did you travel to and what did you see then?
im thinking why are ppl paying 7500 for 3 month red academy school web design program if there are no jobs. i asked the instructor he said those wordpress programs arent customizable. some companies wants something custom and also with the case of outsourcing to india some companies dont want their innovations or ideas stolen. they want it remote.
