I am 19 years old and I live in west Texas. My parents are very attached to me and have a hard time letting go. I have this opportunity to leave here and travel selling magazines. It sounds like fun to me but I cant base my life on fun.. should I stay or should I go?

NO NO NO. Don't do it. It's a scam! You will
end up in cramped vehicles, cramped nasty hotel
rooms and with people you won't like!
If you want to travel around the U.S. there's
many other options. You have to live your life
on your own terms despite how attached your parents
are but be careful.

What other jobs do you know of that I can travel around the united states with? I cant find anything like that... only the magazine opportunity and most people tell me not to do it.

You should not go. I have known a few young people that have gotten mixed up in this. It is a scam. You can't rely on the pay, and they have been known to just fire you and leave you in whatever state you are in at the time. My advice is to stay around home and go to school and get a local job that will teach you a skill.
