Well I think years I got just kind of looking to settle down...get a citezenship to Canada and have a couple acres to grow pot while I can work from home. Nothing against you but I really dislike human beings ever since I was rape. But thank you for you answer.

I'm really sorry to hear that. I hope you have enough support to deal with it!

Regarding bioinformatics, it doesn't have to be a human-centered job. You can get into the data science aspect of it, and make good money off of helping research diseases, for example. This could also be a remote job, and you'd probably have an easier time getting into it. For data science, you can get quite far with Python, which is easier to pick up when compared with other languages.

You can also explore your options further by just asking ChatGPT, and seeing what the potential job requirements would be. It's decent if you want to brainstorm some stuff, but do look up the information yourself on search engines. Write there your experience, what you'd want, and what to expect if you were to jump in that field. Perhaps this could help you decide better.

I wish you the best of luck!

The few cyber security people I've known...to work a good enough job that doesn't pay shit, also means that due to the nature of their job they end up with clients that require drug testing or working at jobs that require it. Not an every case, but just something to be aware of.
