This page is intended as a service to YOU , a young person thinking about becoming an architect . There are a few general details here that you may find helpful in making up your mind. If you just want to make lots of money , you have come to the wrong place. Most architects will tell you that. You can make a comfortable living but, unless you are fortunate, you will not be fabulously wealthy.
Architecture has other rewards.
Deciding on a career is a very important decision you have to make. The problem is that many people don't make this decision and just aimlessly fall into jobs they hate every day. For me, architecture is not like that. Getting paid to do what I enjoy is great. Becoming an architect is not an easy task.
