It's a glamorous business. Your parents would approve. It could certainly satisfy your longing to write. But before you decide to embark on a career in magazines, ask yourself the following questions:

Can you live on minimum wage?
Can you work without benefits?
Will you be happy working as someone's assistant - doing menial tasks like answering calls, making schedules and travel arrangements, and preparing expense reports - for the two or more years?
Can you work late nights, weekends, when you're sick, and with little vacation time?
Do you consider yourself a creative person who thinks of story and visual ideas and themes in the abstract, and is constantly inspired by daily life, events and news?
Do you regularly read books, newspapers and magazines?
Are you willing to continue your education? Whether on the job or in the form of an advanced degree to pursue your goal of being an editor, writer etc.?
Are you thick skinned? Can you avoid taking things personally as you work towards a higher goal?
Are you persistent? Will you do anything (ethical) and any amount of work to get where you want?
Are you willing to spend two or more years in a job before getting the opportunity to express your creative ideas?

If you can answer "yes" to all of these questions, then you're ready to pursue a career in magazines, and will no doubt be a success at it. If you have answered "no" to any of these, don't bother trying to convince yourself. You might want to take a look at related industries or positions - perhaps advertising, publicity, or marketing.
