If I had a kid who was good at mechanical tinkering and not interested in traditional collegiate pursuits, I would strongly encourage them to get into robotics. Seems like a really safe career choice for the future.

I have a friend who runs his own consulting company, working with factories all across the country to set up robots. It is an extremely lucrative line of work if you are good at it.
