In Reply To: Writing is arguably my best skill. However, I do not want to be a starving writer for years before only having a chance to make it. I have a degree from a top 20 school, 1 year of sales success but want to utilize my talents better. Any suggestions on realtively stable careers in the financial world that involve writing and best place to start?
Message: Most companies don't hire "writers" although they do need writers to prepare marketing materials, prospectus, client references, etc. Technical writing is probably the only specific writing job you might find outside of website management and online magazines.
