So basically I'm 20 years old and no ordinary jobs at least to my knowledge really interest me. I work now as a supervisor at a retail store making $11/hr and I need to start making REAL money to afford things. I'm into cars but I don't know how to weld, wire, etc. I'm into clothes but to have a successful clothing line is 1/1000 odds. I'm into tattoos but I can barely draw stick figures.

What do you guys do for a living?

You can't find something people say on a forum and make it your career.
You also shouldn't focus on making a ton of money, although it's the biggest incentive when getting a job.
Based on what you've said, I would try getting a job in a mechanic's shop or a place they work on cars. I don't know where you live, but places that come to mind are things like Pep Boys and Jiffy Lube, a place where you can make decent money but mainly focus on getting experience to get a better job in the future.
Best Buy maybe? They have the Geek Squad and you can inquire on a job and get experience in things that interest you like car wiring.

I'm gonna go on a whim here, because this definitely won't ring true for everyone, but you're not going to be happy slaving away at a high paying job that you aren't interested in and find no satisfaction in.
You're probably never going to get rich and continue your expensive living while working a 9-5 as well.

You have stated a few things that you enjoy (cars, fashion). I would firstly say that it is in your best bet to do some research on the different jobs that there are in the automobile / fashion industry. It is extremely easy to start a clothing line nowadays and advertisement/marketing is even easier.

I think that if you are serious about making "real money" then you need to take risks and start your own clothing line or find a career in the car industry.

A good venture that I have made quite a bit of money form is dropshipping. It is extremely easy however can be risky (only when spending money marketing your brand)

If you are not interested in finding a career and starting your own clothing line is too much of a risk, I would suggest to learn about dropshipping.

If you have any questions on dropshipping or running your clothing line, pm me

Best of luck, bud
