A lot of people have this perception that the only careers in California are related to show biz. I really can’t blame them for that, I suppose — after all, that’s the perception that the media and all other sources of information seem to encourage. However, in truth there are many lucrative careers to pursue in California that really have nothing to do with show biz. Here are just a few fun California careers:
- Careers in the culinary arts. California is a hotspot for entertainment businesses, no matter how you look at it. As a result, there are scores of upscale restaurants, providing plenty of opportunities for a lucrative career in the culinary arts. All you need is a degree from a well known West Coast culinary school, such as Kitchen Academy Seattle, and plenty of ambition.
- Careers in photography. There’s a reason there are so many successful photography schools in California. Photographers find they have plenty of opportunities in California, whether they prefer to photograph landscapes or people. There are plenty of people willing to pay professional photographers for a variety of kinds of photos — for instance, professional portfolio pics for actors and models. Also, there are many publications for photographers to pitch their work to on a freelance basis.
- Educational careers. California is known for being an intellectual hotbed, particularly of rather avant-garde thought. There are plenty of opportunities for college professors, researchers, and others in the educational realms surrounding a successful university.
Not everyone in California is either in show biz, or wants to be. There are plenty of other career opportunities — many of which actually offer much more potential for success than show biz!
