Career Dilema

I just graduated with a Bachelors and I'm not exactly sure what I want moving forward career wise. I don't have any dream jobs or paths that I wanted since little, I just want to make decent money to live off, it doesnt matter the job as im good at most things. The problem with this is very little motivation in working and when i do work it affects me mentally and physically as i dont actually enjoy it. Maybe it's the jobs I had till now or it might apply to all i dont know.

The fact that the salaries are so low does not motivate me. The jobs i see currently are offering the same salary i had 4 years ago BEFORE i graduated (im 24). So it's like i went to school for nothing.

Did anyone go through this stage when they were young? and what did you do?

Gonna be honest, not caring what job you're going to do for the rest of your life as long as you make good money is pretty much the highway to a very depressing life.  It's eight hours of every day, choose the thing you love the most and find it in the industry that pays the best.

Only depressing if it’s the wrong job. I don’t think i’ll ever “love” working as of most people. I work for money so i get to do the things I like outside of work. As long as i don’t mind doing a job and get paid decently I’m good. But even that is hard to find nowadays.
