Peter Parker should get some type of job in fashion. He designed and created his own stylish superhero costume by himself, so clearly he knows about fashion.
Working at a fashion company is also a good job that pays the bills, and he doesn’t have to worry about money while being Spider-Man.
It’s also not that time-consuming.
He’s probably got an insane body too. But the personality doesn’t work, I guess
The “alter ego is a nerd” thing didn’t make sense to me in my teens because I was like “yeah okay, these dudes are fucking shredded and athletic”. Then I found out /fit/ existed and I was like “oh, extremely in shape people can be social misfits too, nice”
Rock climbing is bang in the middle of the two circles “nerd” and “ripped.” Half the folk at my local wall are complete dorks (and I mean that affectionately) whilst also being slabs of muscle. Seems to be popular amongst people working in compsci/IT.
Well, this job certainly would make the perfect excuse for him to take photos of himself striking some cool poses.
Is fashion a good job? I don’t think it generally pays very well.
His job, canonically, has been freelance photographer. I think fashion probably beats that.
He’s a genius though… he could just be a freelance software developer that works remote.
I feel like that would create a paper trail that might break his secret identity.
This guy can sense danger before it happens. I’m pretty sure there’s a way to capitalize on that.

Depending on the universe, he may have designed his own web shooters and webs that are incredibly strong and also dissolve on their own in a matter of hours. He should become a materials engineer.

There are universes where he’s more of a scientist.

He actually did that. Part of the reason Miles Morales was created is that Peter had started a business and actually started making money, which made him less of an everyman.
