Assuming you're in the US, no job here is completely secure. Yes, it's stressful, especially when you have a mortgage and kids! The most secure and indeed "best" jobs over the past few decades have been certain government/union jobs, like cops and firefighters - in some parts of the country. You're more likely to do well in the long run if you're in a field you enjoy and that you're good at. Even then, it will be bumpy. > I can't fathom to see this to happen in the medical field or legal field where experience matters a lot. I think you need to broaden your network and talk to a lot more people in real life - not on the internet. Every field has its pluses and minuses. E.g. being a lawyer is brutal - definitely not a safe and attractive career - I can't imagine where you got that idea.
