As far as I'm aware, SL members have really varied jobs. Not everyone will share (understandably), but there's been some interesting ones.
Thats not bad! What type of art do you do? If you wouldn’t mind i’d like to see some of your work Smile
& yeah that’s true I don’t expect all of SL to be honest about it, but the ones who are open are welcome to share and discuss it here if they’d like.

I mostly do graphite (pencil) sketches. More recently, it's been portraits of people's pets and their family members. I'd love to share, but the images are posted on my personal pages elsewhere, and as a lot of the subject matter intensely personal to the person commissioning (a couple have been of family who have since passed away), I won't share those here.

However, I dabble a tiny bit in digital art. I haven't a clue what I'm doing with if I'm honest, but you can see my attempts at SLs mascot Akane here:

I'm in the military. I take broken circuit cards and make them good, normally by means of soldering

I'm working at McDonalds (law minor employment) for allmost one year and we started a McDelivery service 2 months ago.
Now I'm dellivering overpriced fast food burgers Biggrin (overpriced because when you choose delivery you can't use coupons).

But my main work is a 3 year vocational training (already in the 2nd year) as a certified computer scientist (multimedia) & a certified game developer.
It's like a school where we work with Databases, programming lanuages, game development, software Engineering etc.
Have to pay for this ... thats the reason I'm also SE'ing, to have enough money Smile

Do you actually do good money with it?

Define good money? It's pocket money at the moment, as I literally just started and don't really spend enough time on it/am very slow at getting through the work. I've probably only made about 100-150 GBP so far. But that's from about 3 pieces. If I had a truly established business, it probably would be good money xD

for non-performing assets we have the guidelines from national regulator (reserve bank of india).
but the bank does its own risk analysis based on its exposure to market, credit risk based on regular appraisals etc. i just do analysis of these based on external and internal variables, so that the front office/ management can make decisions.
