Jobs that pay well with no degree?
I want a well paying job but I don't want to go through years of study. I don't mean something to make me rich or whatever (I don't plan on getting married) I just want something to help me afford some kind of house (At the very least 23,000 dollars a year)

Truck Driver! Its what I do. Average pay is 40-50k a year but it varies greatly. For example, guys who haul for the military make somewhere around 100k a year and they are civilians. Guys who work out in the oil fields hauling oil in Nevada/Arizona/New Mexico make around 100k to 150k as well. Guys who own their own trucks average like 100k to 200k a year (but they also have to pay for expenses on their own trucks, which is very expensive). Hell, Walmart truck drivers make 80k a year on average.

Its an awesome job if you like being alone and working independently. But its also a lifestyle and you have to be ready to adapt. It has a very high turnover rate because of family commitments and stuff like that, but there are also local driver opportunities that allow you to be home daily like any other job. They just arent that easy to find. Like, Im pretty sure Walmart drivers are home daily, because I never see any sleeper berths on their trucks.

Any way if i dont mistake to be an independant truck driver you need to own your own truck.
Thoses are not free, you then need to have worked before for a long time to be able to buy it.
the question is back what to do with a good salary without a degree.

I mean you can also just get a loan for it. I mean, personally, I'd opt to by a truck myself as well, but thats not exactly feasible when they cost upwards to $200,000 (aka the same cost as a small house). Hell, the APUs alone cost like $7,000 and thats just one part of the truck.

meh, it depends. In the U.S. you can pretty much get a loan for anything. But interest rate is another story. But its largely similar though in regards to income. You need a sensible amount of income for certain loans. Like, you can't get a million dollar loan making $15 an hour and all lol

It takes YEARS to get a degree ontop of years to get experience... You literally just pointed out that it takes longer than a trade, most trades need less than 2 years training, hell, HVAC only needs a few months. *laughs*

it takes an averege of 4 years to get a bachelors degree and dont know what your point is also trades usually need 4 years apprentie time i done 4 years doing landscaping most of the time was on the job getting the work experience and two days at college for the first year and last getting the formal qualification

setting up your own buisness succesfully in the trade will take you years becasue if you dont have the knowledge experience or resources or connections to just start a buisness as soon as you pass (if you try that you will fail any smart tradie will tell you that because even once you pass you will still make mistakes now and then on building sites and for other companies its okay but when you are the project manqger and main contracter and you ♥♥♥♥ up on someones house it stains your reputation and can have a knock on effect of "dont use this guy hes inexperienced" and you are naive if you think you can just pass your trade time and be a master at the craft ive been doing landscaping for fully qualified for 4 years and i just started taking on projects myself (for another company) last year but i still have my boss who oversees me but im compentent at doing managing and coordinating most builds myself things like full extensions conversions and complex projects i need my bosses experience but i say another few years i will; be ready to use my pick up and startr my own buisness iv got the contacts iv met alot people who can give me refrences and i know alot of tradies you get this from time put in you dont get this from being an apprentice and passing



I don't think you understand the difference between unskilled labor and skilled labor.

ANYONE can work at a fast food place because it is "unskilled", sure they can work hard, but ANYONE can do it so they are not going to get paid a lot because they are so easily replaceable with someone else that will do it cheaper... but not everyone can fix a car or diagnose a complex machinery problem, so they get paid more for having in-demand "skills".

i dont know what your point is again i never said ANYTHING about skilled or unskilled labour i was stating how it can be astressful job enviroment stress does not mean skilled you can be skilled but its not academic and you can have a skill but still eb a lazy worker ve known people who work in mcdonalds and they have told me its a very stressful enviroment and i believe them just look at the place in town centeres when busy they are alwyas on their feet so i take my hat of to them fair play to them at least they are working a jobs a job if you are one of those ♥♥♥♥♥ who thinks his job is uperior then someone elsess job is uperior to yours and so on its a childish way to think i see it alot when some tradies pick on young labourers i dont stand for it some labourers (including my labourer) are great hard working guys whoa re not stupid infact alot of them are smarter than some tradies there was an apprentice last year on a build we were doing a parking lot this guy was slagging my labourer telling him to stick to his sweeping and demeaning him (my labopurers a quiet guy but is very cool and down to earth and quitesmart guy just had some problems growing up) i told him you are no better you are just a working class fool you are the bottem of the barrel like me it got heated after that but in the end he was placed with another crew and i had to leave the job because he went to the site manager and said i was bullying him LOL



Again you show how little you know.

Independent truckers can make a ton of money, especially if they own their own rig (you can buy a nice used peterbuilt or mack for under $40,000usd).

When places need to ship millions of dollars of merchandise and don't have their own trucks, or need to ship odd loads, they usually put them up for a bid though contracts or websites like uship, and independent truckers can bid on those loads, usually for a precentage of what the load is worth and when and where it needs to go. I have 2 family members that do this, one with a big rig and the other with an HD pickup with a large trailer, it actually isn't unusual for them to make $10-20 grand in less than a month.

Hell, you want a source, it is easily searchable on a thing called the google, or you could just watch a few episodes of "shipping wars", since that should be about your speed.

shut up dude your just a cocky childish immature ♥♥♥♥♥ getting your snide insults in grow up its even funnier because you are wrong on everything you clearly dont know what you are talking about so im going to shut you down with facts no truck driver gets paid 10k a month no truck driver the skill is not worth that much money period

the average wage is around 40-70k per year maxing off around 100k in RARE occations of shortages but its a fallacy to say that would be the averege or normal amount but 20k a month over 200k per year hahahaha lmfao no way in hell as the other guy said only way a driver would get that would be if he was smuggling drugs

You can believe whatever you want to believe and we can go back and forth over this ad infinitum.

All I'm pointing out is that some independent truckers can make serious money when you said "no truck driver gets paid 10k a month no truck driver the skill is not worth that much money period".

I prove you wrong, learn to take it like a champ.

At this point I'm just going to agree to disagree with you, as there is plenty of proof out there of truckers making over $120,000 a year AFTER expenses and taxes.

It's alright, we don't need to argue.

Let's allow the independent truckers such as those I hang around and see often make their 200k+ a year, and your sources of company drivers tell you about their 40k+ a year.

Truck drivers wouldn't pay 150k for a brand new dump truck if they only made 40k a year. Many buy used, but for a good quad it can be about 80-90k.

You look things up online, we know actual workers. There's a difference. I know company men and independent truckers.
