You may want to look into Intellectual Property law, as this is a field that
requires people with good verbal intelligence, and since you are interested
in cryonics, you are almost certainly an avid reader...or you were such at
some point in your life.

Secretaries/paralegal types in IP law make good money, and you may be able
to educate yourself enough to get into the field at a small firm, if you
have a computer and an Internet connection adn a year to educate/train
yourself.

I'm curious: you appear to be a young female (or so I surmise from your
name, email addy and sig). The number of young females who become
interested in cryonics "on their own" is quite small. Can you tell me
something about yourself and why cryonics/immortalism interests you?
