Comment on Which career to pursue?

Why are you studying physics?
Have you talked with your professors, instructors and or people with physics degrees about what the career options are?
Moreover, if you’re curious about it design or writing, have you considered taking some course work in those areas? Do you live somewhere that required elective courses outside of your major?

I forgot to mention this part. Thank you for reminding.
Physics degree does have multiple career options. But only after completing the degree along with Masters’. Monthly wage increases if my certificate has more milestones reached by me. Meaning, If I do PhD after Masters, I’ll have a better overall condition than just earning just-above-average wage.
What I’m seeking now is totally different from that. To support my financial expenses myself and building a strong foundation alongside.
If I choose coding, eventually I’ll have to learn mathematics, and this will make me somewhat better at physics than I am now.
If I choose writing, I’ll need to study history, mathematics, chemistry and a bit of everything to be like a polymath of some sort. If my book hits the market, then I won’t have to worry about my financial expenses until my physics degree get me in a stable career.
And if I choose Digital arts, let’s just say, I didn’t practice drawing ever in my life. And I cannot foresee where I’ll be if I choose Digital arts. To me, it feels like a money-on-demand service. Like, I can set a commission and do paid arts and that’s it. Nothing more, nothing less.
And the thing about courses. Where I live, there’s a system where in every major district( states as USA terms ) has a government funded institution where they offer to intake any kinds of course for those who completed a specific academic limit. So, someone completing high-school can get admitted into a course to get a certificate after it ends. That certificate is sufficient enough to apply for a less-than-average waged non-government job. Also it can get an individual to be favoured more when applying for a respective government job after completing education in that respective degree( in my case, Physics ).
What I’m seeking is building a strong foundation alongside just doing my major. Mathematics, digital arts or writing. I can invest the entire year of 2027 if I can fix my focus on one single goal.
I enjoy writing; Don’t actually know why I hate math( I assumed it has to do something about my childhood trauma ); And I don’t know the world of digital arts, maybe because I haven’t been exposed to someone or some platform that entirely based on it, or I just know close to nothing about it.

If you don’t like math then we can pretty much eliminate pursuing a masters or phd in Physics from the list of options.

Or a bachelor’s for that matter. The only way he could be doing more math is if he was an actual math major
