What should I do with my life? My career options are psychologist, cultural anthropologist, or tattoo artist (I already have an apprenticship).

When you say your career options are these three professions what do you mean? I only ask because each of the three requires a distinctly different path of education and training so you cannot possibly be qualified to become all three of these at this moment. I'm going to assume you mean that you'd like to choose one of these careers and not that you've already begun your education in any of them.

With that said, they are each drastically different from one another in terms of the education that is required, the type of work that you would be doing, and the pay you would receive. Anthropologists would work in an academic setting, which means you would first have to attend about 10 years of college and then you would likely be employed by a university as a researcher or Professor. Do not pursue this field unless you LOVE school and want to stay there forever. The pay is not very good considering the tremendous sacrifice of attending a decade of college.

Psychologists also require approximately 10 years of post-high school education, though the career options are more flexible in this case as you can choose from careers in academia/research like an anthropologist can, but also in consulting, as a mental health counselor, or for the government. The pay would be better if you worked outside of academia.

Tattoo artist is one career I'm not very familiar with, but I'm assuming that it requires no post high school education aside from the technical training that is required for certification which I'm guessing takes less than 2 years. The pay would not be nearly as good as either Anthropologist or Psychologist, and the work would be drastically different.

I remember being young and not knowing what to do with my life myself. Out of high school I went to architectural school for a couple years. I had no idea what I was doing... I just was in love with the idea of me as an architect. It was all very juvenile and immature. I am now a bankruptcy paralegal. I never would have thought it would be cool but amazingly it is. My advice is to dig deep before making a decision; don't just scratch the surface. Look at the job market, listen to people in the profession. Do a lot of research. The job market is tight right now, obviously. Make sure you will be doing something you like where your talents are utilized but tread with caution. Sometimes the best jobs out there are the seemingly "less glamourous" ones that others don't want to do. You may find this is where the best opportunities are.
