Three jobs you don’t need a four degree to make 100K

Two of these jobs just might be a tad dangerous.

COVID-19's global death toll tops 5 million in under 2 years

The global death toll from COVID-19 topped 5 million on Monday, less than two years into a crisis that has not only devastated poor countries but also humbled wealthy ones with first-rate health care systems. “This is a defining moment in our lifetime,” said Dr. Albert Ko, an infectious disease...

Don’t see article. Work hard and be willing to learn any job can get you there. At 16 I started my job making $7.25. 20 years later I will make that this year.

Sorry, I usually test any link I provide. Maybe this one works.

These 3 jobs pay more than $100,000 a year and don't require a bachelor's degree

You started making $7.25 (an hour)? And 20 years later you’re still making $7.25? Whaaa?

Lol yup.
Be suprised if average makeup artist makes that a year. But I have a fried that works on power lines and I know he makes 150-200k.

Can’t imagine a nuclear power reactor operator only needing a GoodEnufDiploma.

the nuclear power plant job definitely needs an asterisk. if you dont know physics, chem, math, etc. beyond what many HS teach, you arent getting hired or wouldn’t be able to pass their pre hire training programs/training.

if it was that easy more people would do it but trained chips is funny.
either you got some type of STEM degree or completed the naval nuclear program to get in. most HS are teaching this type of material.

Naval Sea Systems Command > Home > NNPTC > Power School > Study material

practice tests here if you think you are smarter than a chimp.

My advice to young people considering a career: if you know a few people who make good money doing a job, you probably can make good money doing the same thing. If you don't know anyone making a living doing what you want to do, you probably won't make a living at it either.

 

[Mythos]

and I don't care how good you are at it either. I was one of the best illusrators I knew regardless of years of experience. I was the needle in the haystack and the pay still sucked. I became a teacher and never regretted it.

Unless you are planning to get a 4yr degree in something that immediately hires (IE: nursing, financial, education) OR pursue a masters...I suggest getting a certificate or going through a trade school beforehand. EMS program just takes 6months and pays $17-19/hr in my area. Paramedic, Firefighting, Police, and welding each take a year but have decent pay and benefits as well.

Good friend of mine obtained his master's in Biomedical Engineering and got a job at Vanderbilt University; however, he made more working at Starbucks...

I had two Cpls working for me and each had a Master's degree but found they weren't interested in their fields of expertise. I told them they should be officers but they really wanted to do instead of telling people to do and would never experience what they did as an officer.

Even as Cpls they were making almost $100k with all the allowances added to their base pay. I was over $100k with no degree (I got one after). Of course a regular Cpl is making less than $100 but still in the $65-$75K range.

My neighbor has a Master's a PhD and a couple other degrees and can't find a job...she's a teacher and figures she's over qualified for most jobs in her field. She wants to be a Prinicpal but people stay in those jobs forever-you almost have to get that job willed to you.

Lots of overtime I’m sure. Can one do that into their 60s though?
