[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Funeral Director.  2 years for the degree, and it is a wonderful career.  Being 40 and over is not a problem.  I can personally tell you that it is a field that is desperate for qualified people.

It is a wonderful career because you are assisting people in a very needful period of their lives.  Job satisfaction is very high, and funeral directors are some of the funniest and most engaging people I have ever met.

I used to plan seminars and other events for this industry and they were, without a doubt, my favorite association.

I'm not the OP, but can you tell me the duties of a funeral director? Oh and the average starting salary plus what it goes up to? [/quote]

It's been a while, but I think they were starting somewhere in the $63-65K range, and on an average were making about $115K?  It may be more now, I haven't worked with them since 2010.

Their duties include embalming, transportation, service arrangements, sales of containers, etc.
