Yeah, I knew two guys who did welding. One made $100,000 a year, traveling around the world and welding on oil rigs and ships at sea.
Another did welding in a shop in South Carolina, making the metal framework for signs and billboards. That was good work, something like $25 an hour, but when the contract with the sign companies ran out, his welding shop had to lay him off. Then he went to some other metal working shop and learned to run drills and lathes.

I don't think there's much money in cooking. Restaurants generally don't care about your talent and are not willing to pay anything extra for talent.
They just need somebody who can follow the formula mandated by the company and knows the difference between salt and sugar, and won't dip his finger in the soup to taste it.

Learning a trade would be good, and this is the right time to do it. Start as an apprentice and work during the day, and go to a community college 2 nights a week to get a certificate or degree for that career. Study on weekends.

If you can learn Spanish, that will help you a lot, since many of the people you encounter on a job site will speak Spanish, possibly their only language. If you want to be a manager over a crew one day, you'll need to know Spanish.

Yeah...if you learn Spanish you can qualify for many government giveaway programs!

Glad to see a young millennial with a work ethic. You need to learn a trade, hands down. Go tour your local trade school and see which programs interest you. If you can repair, manufacture, or engineer something, you will never be out of work. People who are quick on their feet and good with their hands are worth their weight in gold.
