Watch those northrup people and basically do exactly that

Photography doesn't pay unless you're really good or you suck a lot of dicks.

Well, what do you mean by "good job"?

You can start your own homegrown company, you can do freelance and do small gigs for publications, you can be lucky and get a short-term job for a company. Of course there are more options, but if you were any good you would know what those are already.

As one of the few people on this board who has actually taken a formal photography course (elective i chose to took, not related to my major) and learned from a professional photographer who actually made a good living out of it and gave good advice/stories, I can tell you this:

Consider your experience. Are you formally taught (MFA, Bachelors, any classes anywhere)? How extensive is your portfolio (preferably your own website and not flickr)? What type of photography do you want to do? Connections, got any? Adobe experience? Do you have a good eye for composition/sequencing?

If any of these questions made you doubt yourself, then you should put down the camera and be a wedding photographer.

But you can always improve on those things you mentioned. Maybe not composition, but the rest is.
And doesn't taking wedding photos pays considerably lot?
