If he wants to be well paid and hasn't already misguidedly spent years learning IT skills, I would say learn a trade.

I don't know about the states, but in Canada, trade school is cheap and you're guaranteed to make more than a programmer with less time spent in school. I think the machinist trade is the coolest, but robots are taking that one over pretty quick. Carpenter, plumber, electrician, and welder are safe though.

Must be a Canadian thing still. Learning a trade was really profitable 10 years ago, but it's become viral service that has long found itself outside of the chans. Still remember seeing my normie uncle on faceberg say to become a welder or plumber.
