You need an associates degree for most of those...
Not all heroes wear capes
I am a Registered Nurse. Most hospitals and specialty nursing areas require a Bachelors Degree now unless you are in a rural area of America where health professionals are scarce.
well everyone always says "pick a career that you enjoy doing" but I dont think theres any money into doing nothing.
B Y1 I dont smoke pot I personally think its for pussys and Im a Generation Z soooo. :) Have a nice day.
do crappy jobs to build work ethic then you will realize its better to get educated/skilled trade then being homeless or in Micky D's.
B Y1 I am a baby boomer (57), and it is difficult to label a whole generation. I know of many baby boomers who are my age or older and dont have their shit together! Some millennials are lazy, and some are highly motivated.
@@aaronjones394 every generation. Your right
You can become a politician and do nothing and still make money
If only I saw this video while I was still in high school...
Lol I’m a freshman at high school and am trying to figure out what to do.
Nate O'Brien I’m in middle school
I'm barely learning to read
I'm a sperm swimming around
Nate O'Brien i’m in 11th and have thought about 2 things, lawyer and/or real estate
It's weird that society looks down at trades like plumbing, electrician, and hvac. Especially when these are some of the most valuable, stable, and high-paying skills to have. Society wants to condition young people to think that trade schools are for people who aren't "book smart"... whatever that means. As if going to a big state university and being stuck with student loans is some sort of rite of passage in life.
FoneArc amen..lmao i dropped college one day just couldnt sit through my business class another day i could only imagine..i took a course to be a heavy duty technician and i make a decent wage of course the pay can have drastic differences on what and who you work for but i work for cummins and its not bad i have a pension good health insurance and all the other benefits..it is hard work but at 27 sitting at a desk all day is an absolute no go for me..
FoneArc true that, it seems since you don't have a degree it's not a respectable job. But I will tell you one thing when wires are sparking, the furnace/AC doesn't work, and when a toilet or the mainline is backing up with sewage. People become frantic.
Yup. Being an MBA or something similar isn't going to help you if SHTF.
Those guys are rich where I live lol
FoneArc It's become a rote of passage
College is a scam for 2/3 attending today.
Tim Xoque Except if you get a practical degree, I did finance and get paid 80k at 24 with my comfy office and benefits .
blackice214 agree. But basket weaving isn't a worthwhile degree.

hi 120k

"money dosent make you happy"? Ive never seen a sad person on a jetski!
I say money may not bring happiness, but I guarantee you poverty will bring you misery
Haha this is so true
When you get off that jet ski are you happy?
no, not really. I dont like getting sand in the lambo.
The thing is that money amplifies you. If you’re a happy person without money, you’ll be even more happy with money . If you’re bad person without money , you’ll be even more bad with money
I’m gonna tell y’all the real secret. Do some type of trade with a company for 2-5 years. Once you have a money and knowledge built up start doing your own thing. The only way to make GOOD money. Uncle started his at 19 and is 63. On top of all that he invested. There isn’t a word to explain the money he has. He gave me his life advice and I’m taking it and running.
By this do you mean starting a business or company?
Money does make you happy. Poverty makes you and everyone around you miserable.
Correction. You can have all the money in the world and still be as miserable as everyone else. Money can't buy you happiness, but it does provide security for when you need it the most.
Willie Turner it’s all relative then, I guess. 🤷🏻♂️
Money cannot buy happiness....but lack of it will sure cause unhappiness.
A wise man told me once. Just make enough to survive, do you really need that extra money?
First know what kind of life style you want to live,
Then plan how you’re going to get there.
Wanna live in a mansion?
Gotta work 10 times harder than the average joe.
Gotta learn how to make money using money.
Gotta learn passive income.
I’m not bashing on you or anything, I’m just saying in general to anyone.
That's so true
For those who know, nursing is not a “little to no college” degree. It’s 2-4 years of high stress, difficult nclex style tests, clinical hours, little to no sleep, etc. It can be done, but anyone in healthcare who’s gotten the degree and licensure to work knows it takes a lot to just get the 1st job.
Yea it takes forever, my sister is a RN. She is in her second year working and is making bank $$$
So averaging about 3 years of college in an overwhelmingly in demand career (even more since covid) with no student debt and averaging 66k is a pretty good deal to me...
@@jewelscjobs Yeah absolutely career and income potential wise it's a great deal! These days if you live in near or in an expansive city you can earn 66k on the low end into the 100k+ range even as a new grad if you play your cards right. That being said not everyone is built for that type of work and certainly not everyone is built to last for a long time in it. Nearly half a million left the profession altogether in 2021 in just the US alone. So if you go through with it just know what you're getting into is all
@@bigloko6380 That’s whats up, let me holla at your sister, what’s her number!?
Pretty much you gotta hustle in life to get ahead in life. You put in your time you live comfortably.
FOS! Lol
Realest comment I ever heard
Yes and no but mostly no to reach past 6 digits you gotta join the club and make a couple sacrifices zero exceptions.
Even the shitty jobs and long hours I worked at after high school paid off several years down the line.
I joined the Carpenters union when I was 20 years old , started off as in apprentice , toped off at $45 an hour as a journeyman .. best decision I made , I recently quit and became full time for an Airline , $31 an hour with lots of O.T and great bonuses .. and I don't have an education, just a GED . There's plenty of good jobs out there , just gotta look for them and not be lazy .
Jay Sandoval can I have a website for more information?
Where would you look for work to start with?
U was , actually I'm still a member of the Carpenters union local 181 in Chicago .. I called the nearest union hall and got on a waiting list . You can check the info on Carpenters union.org .. as far as the airline , I applied online 7 years ago ,but I work for Delta Airlines , which has no union and they start off with part time only , takes years to get full time , not worth the wait .. your better off with United or American airlines , even Southwest airlines they all top off at around $33 an hour
I was working both jobs , 12 years union carpenter , and 7 years with the airline , once I had enough seniority with the airline for a good wage , I became full time with benefits .. and since u can do double shifts , I only work 3 or 4 days a week
So just go to United , American and Southwest airlines and apply , good pay lots of overtime and flying benefits
I quit my $32 a hour job as well . Hated the long hours working 7 days a week. And brings taxes 1/3 of my paycheque . Best decision I ever made 👌🙏

I'm from Houston, I'm fortunate that I got in the IBEW 716 apprentice program. I'm 23 and already bought my first house. God bless unions and their hard work. I wish people would stop being so arrogant and accept to join a union. They literally work for you. Brotherhood till I die.
Glad you're doing well. How long did it take to join the union?
Amen brother
Hey I’m looking to becoming a lineman in HTX or SATX area as soon as I get out of the military which will be very soon. Is there anyway you could help a brother out and I could email you and ask a couple questions?
Thank you for speaking loud & clear.. not background music.

I work at taco bell i make 230k
Every 10 years 😂 so 23k a year
Jonathan Casares Nice😎
That's considerably more than I make carrying cabinets. I just wasn't taco bell material.
That was flippin' hilarious! 😂😂😂

Jonathan Casares
Nothing wrong with that.
I honestly feel like killing myself when i dwell on trying to make a career for myself as i see no hope, so much so i feel lost in this mad jungle. Im always one of the hardest workers in any job I've ever had but with no qualifications i have an impending feeling of doom, trapped.
That's how the system was designed brother...it's pure slavery...the goal should be to get enough money to buy land build a home and live rent free...if that's not the goal there is no goal..most ppl haven't realized this
How I feel , remember evryone has a purposue
MerseyMinded fax 💯, the exact situation I’m in rn. Lmk if you need someone to talk to. Keep your head up.
Buck the fuck up. Are you physically handicapped? If not shut up and go swing a fucking pickaxe. I'm 25 with no schooling, a low IQ, and a bad leg. I can barely walk up stairs or else I'd be on the pipeline or an oilrig
@Marysol Alvarez I was in a rut like that myself but i discovered the power of positive thinking. Changed my life. You need to check out high thinkuency or some other channel..it will seruously help you. I used to pray for death but now i just focus on the beauties life has......there are eople in this world that would love to have our problems. Good luck to you
To all the people watching this video keep grinding 🙏🏽
With these jobs it's not "what" you know but "who" you know, that's how you land them!
DC79ism you’re correct..I wish I knew somebody like that in Atlanta..I some help ASAP

@@jonathanrivas-rodriguez6341 lmaoo facts
BINGO!!!!
Ryan, being a dental hygienist or registered nurse requires a mandatory of two years prerequisite courses before they even consider you as a potential candidate. Once you fulfill your prerequisites courses one can apply to the dental hygiene or registered nurse program which is a fulltime two year program. Four years minimum sometimes working adults take much longer. These professions are not for the undisciplined.
Not in SC. Both are 2 years
@@jewelscjobs wi requires 2 years in long term care for RN but nearly all hospitals will hire you with an agreement you get your BA while working in 2 more years.
My Sibling got hired as dental hygienist--trained her in office she eventually took test.. No problem..
I should have clarified I'm speaking from my experience in the state of California.
I was always told that if I don’t have anything holding me back; mental/physical issues then it all comes down to determination. I’ve always worked smart and hard and if needed I moved where the work was. I did trades, then got into the automotive industry and for the last 10 years I have been with the DOD. I’m a gov civilian service worker and have found my dream career. That also means I’m a DS-05... that’s our version of GS-13 and I’m on LA locality. That’s right under $130k yr before overtime. I do not have a degree.
While I am not your average case... it can be done.
As far as this guy talking about utilities... my buddy works for PG&E(gas company) in Cali and he’s doing $48hr and he’s not degreed.
He is right about the ATC. You can go into the military and get all the quals and get out and walk on with the FAA as a 2152 controller and make huge money. If I had to do it all over I would’ve done that.
Passion doesn't pay the bills or takes care of the family
anotherchanceful sound like some shit that somebody say when they give up in life n go to a job they hate everyday
Got damn right!
Not sure how you work. You can still have passion getting whatever job you have done and improve until a better opportunity
In most cases, that is true.
Why people hating on this comment? Some people are fortunate enough to follow their passion, and some people have to focus on providing for their family. There's no shame in either path. Also just because you work a job that isn't your passion doesn't mean you necessarily hate your job.
anything less than $150k here in Cali and U gonna be Broke
27 PayBack true , I was making 80k and weren’t enough to buy a house .
@@omarveneno you can find one if you live in the desert. My dad bought a beautiful house in victorville
Why would anyone want to live in such an awful state?
@@omarveneno Lmao not true unless you live in the bay or LA areas. I make 85k now in a city near Sacramento and my wife 45k. We own a home I have a C7 corvette and a Lotus Evora S. Corvette paid off. Not hard dude just can't live in those areas.
Max Million my wife doesn’t work man .
I worked as an electrician for 15yrs and the good thing about it is you can do tons of side jobs in residential homes as I worked in commercial buildings and chemical plants making 35dls an hour plus we would keep all the copper which would add up in the thousands in a year. So if you choose a trade make sure you can do side jobs while you work for a company. That way you can make enough for investing in the stock market
28 and still i don't know what I want to do.
I didn't finish high school. I started out making 25k a year. I moved to MA landed a job in 3 days and in 2 years I'm up to 65k. I'm seeking working for myself. That's the best way I think. Investing, saving and working for yourself and real estate.
Good for u bro
@@Proatcod10 Appreciate it.. This is 10 months ago and some more greatness has came 🙌🏾🙌🏾🥇🥇😁😁
GREAT video! I'm a union carpenter and I couldn't be happier. I learn great skills that are transferable and allow me to go into business for myself. I'm surrounded by awesome happy people and I look forward to going to work when I wake up every morning. Nothing beats looking at a building that you helped build with your own hands.
You miss one Bus Transportation ! I started with Chicago Transit Authority top salary was $23 an hour 2003 took me 3 years. I retired I was right at $32 an hour you only need a high diploma and $60 take the CDL test for class B. CDL= Commercial Driver's License. And it is also a union job and their last contract they are now at $35 hrs. for Bus Operater.
He's right I've been driving around the beaches of San Diego as a Bus Operator for over 20 years making $27 an hour and $33 an hour overtime pay prior to serving in the Army....Easy Money !!!
My pops just retired from NYC Transit Authority after $30 years. He got paid handsomely.
And, don't forget all the sh heads you have to deal with on a daily basis.
john luongo you should just have to take one test for your CDL if you're applying for either of those two careers but you never know these days from state to state because it seems every other year they may have something new on the books....Good Luck wish you all of the best !!!
Mark Jacob yes it is and when they get through taxes your check, taking out Union dutes and everything else ,it's just like buying a car from a dealer it look good at the top about time to get to the bottom you wondering why the hell you paying the rest of your life. Lol
My wife is an 5th grade elementary school teacher in California and makes 90k a year. The teachers making low wages are either fairly new or don’t have a masters degree. I work in medical supplies and make 200k a year.
How’d you get that job? College?
New York City Union Plumber here. Make 105k a year. Later on, plan on starting my own business start off with 3-5 guys.
Seeker of Light how long it took u to make what u make now?
third eye thirst about 5 years, because in order for you to really start making money is after your apprenticeship which is a 5 year program. After that you can start making $50 an hour. So if you decide to work 60pls hours weekly that's about 9-10k a month and 144k a year before taxes.
AND THATS NOT INCLUING THE SIDE JOBS YOU DO.
like go fix a leak or change a toilet filter for a normal house where supplies are $30 and you charge $250 for the work. Easy 60-80k on the side.
third eye thirst and if you start your own small company with like 5-10 good plumbers...well over $250k a year.
Seeker of Light recently I invested some money in a business didnt work out well for me I ended up making some.bad decisions and I learned a hard lesson.. what advice u give me what I should do, dont really got a degree or anything like that I was always earning fast money and not illegally or anything like that just my whole life did a 360 in last 2 3 years had a spiritual awakening and everything changed for me lol sorry if I lost you there with the awakening part
third eye thirst well I mean it's hard to say, because I'm not you and I can't really tell you what to do with your life lol. If you're like me where you want to make good money and good with your hands but don't necessarily love your job nor hate it, then get a trade if not, you gotta figure it out man.
Great video! many people might not have thought about all these types of jobs. I started as a Roofer and now I'm in Information Security working for banks in Canada. When I started out I was willing to clean the floors to get ahead. I can totally relate to this video.
White Armour Consulting well that's sweet and all but jobs are hard to get. With everyone asking 5years experience and all that bs I'm really considering going to college. And trying to out alot of these companies out of business
@@1Chinx my man try to do those bullshit security jobs then get a arm license then apply ...
step 2 : profit
I'm a 32-year-old with 12 years of hospitality experience I was recently laid off and currently looking to get into something that pays well but doesn't make me as expendable like the hotel gig I had which paid me well at a rate of 32.00 an hour. I tried becoming a HVAC apprentice but it didn't work out because I had zero knowledge of the field and the boss had zero patience I'm not a dummy but I never owned tools in my life other than a hammer and a screwdriver i really want to be successful but father time is catching up to me and i don't have much time to continue to fail like a younger guy could not to mention i have 2 kids
None of these jobs will hire felons, can you do a video about jobs for felons because there are people out here that have made mistakes and are wanting a better life.
That's bullshit. I am a Union Electrician and I work next to convicted murderers that all make over $100k yearly. A contractor could care less what the hell you've done in your past if you know your trade. Do not listen to this dumbass comment.
New Life Trucking Most construction union trades could care less about felony backgrounds. Look into Union trades!
New Life Trucking, I have 3 felons in the family. One did 5 years for misc crimes and now owns a very profitable contracting company, cabinet company and trucking company. He makes bank! He always was a multiple Tasker.
The other did 11 years in federal prison for drug trafficking and now sells cars; he does well, better than most, for himself.
Lastly, one robbed a bank and after many years of thinking decided he was tired of taking and decided to give back. He got out and started a non profit helping felons get on there feet and find direction. He is not rich, but he has a great family and he was recently honored on national TV by president Trump for his efforts. I call that successful.
The rest of us in the family, who have always played it safe, we work average jobs and have average success. I think felons aren't afraid to to risk. If you take the right risk, you'll be better off then most.
Congrats on a new life. Wishing you much success!
... for a friend
New Life Trucking it's just as hard for disabled and people would suffer depression.
If I had a little brother who was thinking about skipping university (which I would probably encourage), I would recommend the following:-
1. Software/Web Developer
(You can teach yourself most of what you need to know. Demand is high enough that small companies will usually give you a shot even if you don't have a degree)
2. Corporate Sales
(Although it's true most positions require a business degree, most employers also admire perseverance)
3. Real Estate/ Insurance Salesman
(Very high earning potential if you play your cards right. Because would be working on full commission, gives you confidence to work for yourself. Just make sure your employer means well and absolutely for no reason should you join an MLM)
4. Paralegal/Accounts/Admin Assistant
(Although you don't immediately require a degree, it would be wise to eventually get one with these positions. However, you learn more from working one of these jobs in a year than you do studying the subject for four years in uni)
5. Events Planner
(see points 2 and 4. One of the few positions where you can jump straight to a management position. Just remember to get your degree)
Actually you got to be creative when it comes to making money when you're young. Even if you have a degree, the biggest mistake you can make is being too choosy and expecting to get a job through the front door when you're starting out. Every job I have gotten ever has been through a connection, networking and luck
No worries man :)
Correction: Not just ANYTHING related to health care is a good set. I have 3 degrees, Bachelors and Masters both in Nutrition. As an RD working at a large medical center, I make barely half what you made at your miserable, no education job, AND I hate my job as well. Not to mention I'm 100k in student loan debt. So I get the worst of both worlds. High debt, zero life fulfillment, and I can't afford to repay my loans. I'll likely be broke for the rest of my life unless I can find a way to drastically increase my income (like starting a RUclips channel seemed to do for you). And unlike you, with your 5 year guarantee of a drastic salary increase, I've been working almost 7 years at this major medical facility and my salary has gone up ... 3%. I strongly suggest every young person I speak with to consider NOT going to college. At least not immediately. It makes me very unpopular, since most parents are like mine. "You WILL go to college so you can be successful!" Those parents hate me ... Sadly, that isn't how life works anymore.
A lot of the hospitals in my area aren’t hiring RNs with Associate Degrees anymore. They are favoring candidates with a BSN.
The Deco Cottage yea alot of nurses are having to go back to school because of this now.
Yep,I dont advise ppl to get only there ASN.
You must find a job that you like. Liking your job is more important then the money. You must find a balance between a job that you like and the money. You will never get the time back that you have lost.
If u have love for something liek arts and want a job in arts then u will. I did hvac 2 years commercial and residential, many companies, I HATED IT. I quit 2 months ago. Im happy i did. Tho i lost almsot 3 years of my life doing something i knew i disliked and end up hating it. Today im considering arts because its the only thing that bring me inspiration and a type of love. Filming/Animator arts❤
Great one on the Utility construction. Almost made $95K at 22 y/o in my second full year as an underground gas mechanic; all in house training with nothing out your check. I’ve switched to something less labor intensive and make a higher hourly wage, though with much less overtime but I’m still on track for around the same, maybe a little less. If you can handle some labor to get your foot in the door, working for a large Local Utility is the way to go!!!!
Latrell Roulhac do u need a degree or any type of training?
They train you in everything. You just need to have some type of previous construction experience, or have worked for them as a contractor. Hardest part is getting in the door because there are usually hundreds of applicants for maybe a 10 person trainee class.
Latrell Roulhac Congratulations! It seems that persistence is the key.
Update, still with the gas company and my wife got a job with the electric company as a overhead Power line mechanic/ technician putting people back in power. No college, just a little electrician helper experience. Still no regrets. I know not everyones circumstances allows them to work at the nearest large power/gas/ oil company. It’s hazardous, demanding, and labor intensive (until you move around within the company to a less physically demanding position, which I love,) but from personal experience, it’s totally worth it.
Unless you’re planning on being a doctor, lawyer, engineer, computer geek or teacher... don’t go to college waste of time and a butt load of money
Well obviously
I have that same lamp. $30 at good will. brand new.
I got a starting wage of $29/hr and increasing when i got certified as an aircraft mechanic and technician. But before i got cert, i worked at the local hanger as an apprentice making $19/hr
Ure right watsap me 0755482600
Nice... I don't really work on an hourly pay rate but I guess if I had to pick one I would average at about $40 an hour doing retail Construction... The cheat codes are out there you just have to find them

Dude how do you make a list and not include programmer. I’m 25 with no degree and am currently making 60/hour as a contractor(typical 40 hours a week), if I wanted to get a full time job with benefits I can easily get hired at 90-100k a year with benefits. This is by far the best path if u don’t want to go to college. The career growth opportunities are amazing. I should mention you have to self teach and spend a shit load of time learning but that’s expected.

I started a pest control company when I was 22......I make $275,000 per year the last 10 years......no college diploma......"this is by far the best path if you don't want to go to college"
I completely agree with the idea of this video. College is NOT for everyone, and it wasn’t meant to be. I became a nurse, knowing that I loved helping people and wanting to make a difference in their lives. A decent paycheck is something that comes along with it, however the job is tremendously stressful and it should be thought about very carefully as you mentioned. I am currently working as a nurse while trying to pursue my passion of making RUclips a full time career as well and becoming an entrepreneur in the types of niches that I truly enjoy and are lifelong passions of mine. Absolutely awesome video!!!
I was medically retired from the Army. The military pays way better than it used to. In 2018 a married PFC/E-3 stationed at Fort Jackson starts out at about $44,000. Most Soldiers will make that rank within the first 2 years. E-3 base pay with less than 2 years is $1932.04 + $1395 for housing + $369 for food allowance = $3700.04/month or $44,400.48 a year. Now this is only for married Soldiers. If you are a single Soldier you would live in single Soldier housing aka the barracks which is equal to college dorms and eat in a cafeteria style eatery called a DFAC or chow hall. 100% of all meals are provided to single Soldiers and there is no rent, utilities, deposits, or fees associated with the barracks. The barracks are fully furnished and the newer ones usually resemble a 2 bedroom apartment with each Soldier having their own private room. The kitchen areas are usually equipped with full sized fridge, oven/range, and a microwave with plenty of cabinet and counter space. Most barracks rooms have a shared (for 2 Soldiers) basic bathroom. The Army's gyms called Physical Fitness Centers aka PFC (not to be confused with the rank PFC) are state of the art fitness centers that are 100% at no cost to the Soldier and their family aka dependents. You would also get 30 days paid vacation aka leave. On top of that you would get between 5-12 holiday weekends that are 3-4 days each(not guaranteed). The Army has educational opportunities for the Soldier and their dependents. There are great recreational opportunities as well. All of this sounds too good to be true to so many American's and yet they still will not even talk to a recruiter. Why?
I’m a janitor at a very rich high school and make $100k a year
Male nurse FTW. It’s a rapidly growing field with almost endless opportunities. You’ll never have trouble finding employment. It’s also very hard work and very stressful, with a lot of politics and peer to peer backstabbing.
It’s still a female dominated field as well. That can create different problems and opportunities for male nurses. It has a different feel than a field with a predominately male structure and hierarchy.
William Fry I'm a CNA right now but I'm going to be an RN and be a traveling nurse
Your spot on I have worked maintenance in both nursing homes and hospitals, the politics are endless along with men having to egg shell walk around the 98 percent female workforce. I left couldn't stand it
CNA is quite possibly the most under appreciated profession. The world needs more of them.
Very true. You never know what sort of drama you’ll encounter on any given day. However, I’m pot committed so I have to make the best of it.
I’m in my late 20’s. Make me wanna go back to school & make a change
Almost every female around my age where im from is trying to be a RN😂 gonna b the spider man meme when u walk into work
That’s cause it’s easy & you’re mostly learning something new everyday.
I’m 25 years old. I have a 1 year certificate in precision machining. Left trade school with ZERO debt. I make 121k yearly working 60+ hours a week. I invest most of my income and I’ll be a millionaire in my early 30s with average stock market returns.
I talk to people from high school who graduated college with 4-6 year degrees in engineering, accounting and business. I still make more than they do with zero debt. They also work 50+ hours a week.
Just 1 year? Elaborate?
I’m a line worker apprentice I make 33hr in four years my rate goes up to 50$ hr this is a union job so progression is guaranteed
Erik Moreno can't beat that
Any non-whites working for your company making that kind of money?
Deryl Alexander I’m Hispanic and yes there are other non whites lol
Erik Moreno are u a white hispanic or black Hispanic tho?
isnt your job really dangerous. dont guys get zapped and smoked alive.
This is a fantastic video! So many people need to know about the options available.
I’m 20 and I don’t know wtf to do with my life I’m so confused
You’re young af bro you got hella time to decide what you wanna do don’t stress out
Im 25 and still dont know
I'm 35 and been working in an agricultural factory for the last 7 years I'm trying to find a new career that pays really good I have my own house and stuff but I want to make some serious money and just get ahead
My mom went to technical college to become an rn about 5 years ago for 2 years. She went from making about 29,000 a year being a school bus driver to making about 71k a year being an rn. And all she really does is document medicines, paperwork, etc
Hey how is it going?
What is rn?? Registered Nurse??
@@luigiperez3756 yes
My mom is an LVN nurse, below an RN and works home healthcare and makes over 100k. You don’t have to be an RN to make good money. You don’t make shit working in a hospital.
Year out of high school already making 80k a year ... oil field baby
Lol who do you work for?
Yes Sir!!!!!
@Ti Klim yes the WTI crude oil futures went negative
@Ti Klim yeah for some reason there is a rotation in demand for natural resources hence why clean energy is set back temporarily
Wow, I've been talking to a few people and there are a bunch of jobs out there that pay really good that we wouldn't realize. State jobs included. But like we always say, do we really like that job? It stinks how many people hate their jobs, its depressing. I'd rather focus on passion than a high paying job, thats just me ;)
RealLife Money Wanna focus on passion. Go to college they have many majors that focuses on your passion the thing is you have to pay them they donr pay you. Good Luck with that...
RealLife Money
Dont forget some folks have kids though and bills need to be paid today.
RealLife Money ...true..it's a very sad thing. I've always hated corporate work. The 8 hrs a day, 5 days a week, in an office, with a cubicle, on a chair, infront of a computer screen is nightmarish for me. Ive hated it. So Im trying to do something different that doesnt bring me misery. And hoping it will work out for me financially.
That is the aspect called being a Slave , get up , go to job you hate, to pay bills and eat, to come home, eat a boxed Dinner while watching TV , falling asleep exhausted , taking your antidepressant medication, to fall asleep, to be woken up by an alarm at some god awful early morning time, to be at the same horrible job, like a hamster on a wheel. It is just not worth living a life that has trapped people into a cubicle. Sad!
I am , Please do absolutely anything that inspires you. I know from experience that I can do a better job and make money at anything I put my mind to. If I have passion for my ideas that passion is what sells and makes you more marketable!
I did Carpentry for a year and enjoyed it. But now Apprenticing in Instrumentation in the Oil and Gas Industry has a 1st year I started at $32.50 an hour. As a Journeyman Instrumentation Technician the pay rate is $65 an and that’s 8-12 hour days.
How do you get involved in that field?
Tell me more
I went to a Technical High School and decided to take Automotive Technology. By the time I was a Junior in 2006, with the help of my shop teacher I was able to get a job as an oil changer at a Lexus Dealer for $9.00hr. This Lexus Dealer was so busy that there was 2 Shifts. It was great because not many dealers where open late and this Lexus Dealer was open til midnight. So I would get home and finish my homework and make it to the Lexus dealer by 3:45PM and work until 9:45PM. Since I was under 18 and still in High School I was not allowed to work pass 10PM. I graduated High School in 2007 and had a full time job at a Lexus Dealer. I also wanted to learn Electrical so in Nov 2007 I signed up for a 1 year Electrical Technology class. Since I was working nights at Lexus I was able to go to school during the day. I graduated in Nov 2008 from the Electrical class and found a job as an Apprentice Electrician. I was working 2 full time jobs. Electrician during the day and Mechanic at night. The only bad thing about working as an electrician was because of the Recession I would get laid off, but i didn't care because i still had a full time job at night at Lexus and was never laid off at Lexus. I did this for about 4 years working both jobs and save up money to buy a 3 family house for investment. I bought a 3 family house in 2012 and renovated the house. I finished the renovations on all 3 floors in 2014. It took 2 years of hard work. Now I rent each floor for $1,500 a month. In 2012 Lexus shut down the night shift and I went to days. I was no longer able to keep working as an Electrician during the day and couldn't find any Electrical work at nights. I became a Lexus Master Diagnostic Specialist and was making $25hr. In 2017 I found a job opening for the Utility Company and decided to apply. I got the job as a Garage Mechanic and it started me at $42.02hr and I get an additional $2.50hr for working nights. I'm also in the IBEW since I work for the power company. I'll be making over $100k a year and have no college degree, just 2 trades and I just turn 30. I busted my ass in my 20's and how I can take it easy. Thinking about going to get my Real Estate license now since I'm not doing nothing during the day.
jeffbmwm6 .... Wow What a Blessing God Almighty is Soooo Good!!
jeffbmwm6. Good job
jeffbmwm6 Too bad they didn’t teach you about paragraphs at that school.
I hate when how teachers complain about their pay, but they actually get paid decent
Gavin McGuinnes had an interview with an 18 y.o. kid who worked as a lumberjack tree topper. (Climbing to the top and chopping the top off)
He made 200,000 per year
That's a dangerous job tho
That shit is scary if you fall game over
Tow boat pilot/captain. I started as a deckhand 5 years ago making 35,000. Now I make about 120,000 as a pilot bushing barges up and down the Mississippi River. Most people go to a test prep school for a week to get their merchant Mariners credentials. Then they start a steering which means learning on the job how to operate a tow boat. Can take anywhere from 1 to 3 years, just depends on what River you will work, size of boat, type of towing, and your ability to learn. Great job nothing else I'd rather do. I work 28 days on and 28 days of. There are jobs where you work a 12 HR shift and go home every day, but they typically don't pay as well.
Brandon Phillips that’s nice! What company do you work for?
A couple actually. But my main company is American River Transportation company.

Hero bull not to dangerous as you will not work on anything live, but can be very stressful at times and not as interesting as it’s made out to be unless your at the top of the ladder it’s also fairly stressful
How do I get into it
Union pipefitter in Texas. Started off at $15 an hour now at $34 an hour after the 5 years. Made 70k in 2017
isn't texas an expensive to live in state? dont recall cheap rent or housing in any of the cities or towns
I guess I'm unsure. I though we were about average. Mortgages on a 200k house are about 1400
I went to Community College here in California. I went to night school, 4 nights a week, while working full time. I got a 2 year degree in Elect/Mech Design Drafting, CAD Computer Aided Drafting. Within 2 years of starting my new career, I was making $22. per hour. That more than doubled my $9 per hour job, while going to school. I even got my employer to pay my college fees. More recently making over $30 per hour. Also consider 3D printing careers, or CNC machine operator, or CNC maintenance mechanic. Selected Community Colleges offer classes in those. STAY AWAY from TRADE SCHOOLS... Community Colleges are BETTER and there is a lot of AID available.
I never went to college and retired at 52 years old by working my butt off. Get in with an up and coming company that offers you stock or start your own business.
What kind of business can you start with 5k
Regardless of how much any job pays, I'm going to finish my BA degree in Computer Science.....
I rebuilt chimneys for 18 years at first I charged $30 an hour later on I charged $100.00 an hour and worked 7 days a week. I was the only chimney guy rebuilding chimneys in a 75 mile radius best year was 2009. My yearly sales that year was 110,000.00

I'm so glad someone finally mentioned trade unions! Proud LIUNA member here in Ohio, 80k a year. Oh and I'm 22 y/o
Oh Whatup just got a call from a LIUNA local 158 contractor it's a kick in the dick when I'm waiting for a local 445 carpenter contractor

Paul Barrera what job do u do?
AJDatLame Paving crew on state side for a company here in Cincinnati. I run the screw on the paver and drive the fuel/water truck.
D R Hell yes, Union strong ✊
Owner Operator Truckers average 185k a year. These guys aren't "company workers", no they bought their own truck and are running a one man show business.
21 years old is the minimum age for a Class A license. Spend 10k on 30 days of CDL school. Pass the gov exam, get hired, get trained on the road for 30 days. Work as a regular for 1 year, after 1 year get on the lease program. Work "smart" and in 2 years the truck is paid off. So around 24-26 years old you can be averaging 185k a year if you started driving at 21-22 years old.
Trucking is not easy, it's not a cakewalk and it's not for everybody. But as far as gathering resources and money for the next stage of your life, nothing can beat Trucking except selling drugs lol.
To the kids in High school here, Alot of oil field jobs start at $20+ HR, I freshly graduated made $2k+ a week for almost a year. Blew alot of it on parties. Remember it's not about how much u spend but how much you save. Key to being rich
Carlos Gutierrez what job do u do on the oilfield?
For the IT field all you really need is your CompTIA A+. You can go higher you can follow the path. I went to Job Corps and learned and earned my A+ (which is for both exams $400+ ) and got it for free , stayed in the dorm for free , ate for free as well. There are ways to succeed without a degree.
Yes!!!!!
Respect dude do what you love not what pays well.
Being a welder in Texas pays anywhere $35-$50hr but typically its $40 to $45 hr
Saturation
32 years old, have a bachelors in business MGT, college is just 1 big party. I can’t even remember anything that I’ve “learned”. Worked about 3 stupid jobs chained to a desk in a call center phone farm. Happy to say I’m starting as a helper for a master electrician next week @ $13/hr. I’ve always been mechanically inclined, loved fixing things, and a problem solver. I am beyond excited to start a career. Much better than pyramid schemes, cold calling, and kissing upper mgt ass. I’ll take $13/hr any day before that nonsense.
So how did it work out? Did you have to pay for training?
True 23 years young and making more then $100k a year loving what I do👨🏼🏭
What do u do
AJDatLame welder
$52 an hour as a carpenter in California. Been doing this for the last 8 years and always have made one 125k. Money is out there folks especially in the trades.
23 years old, I make 31 dollars an hour. And all I have is a high school degree. I also work every bit of overtime that I can.
Luke M where do you work?
He makes beer.
Mike Murphy I work for Toyota at one of their Distribution Centers. On a side note I am going back to school this fall to get a business degree. But my company is paying for a lot of it. I honestly just got lucky lol...
lucky af
Al P. Took me 2 years of applications, calling, waiting, emails, and interviews before I got hired.
It's good in general to learn a trade. You can learn in some high school programs. It's good to have for a career or a backup plan if things don't work out the way you want. Pays well. Plus, in some high school it's free.
A painting contractor can easily make more than $100k a year. My brother was really good with that and with home renovations. Doing electricals, dry wall, tile laying and other stuff. And he very easily made between $10k- $20k a week. To start off he would collect about $3,000 for the materials and sometimes they would pay him half up front and then the other half when the job was done. Usually at the end of the week. And one summer he contracted with a guy who was building condos and made about $100 grand during the summer. And he started when he was 17 years old.
Esmeralda Gems interesting
This is exactly what I've been looking for ever since i graduated high school back in May 2017 and not knowing what i want to do with my life . Definitely gonna be watching this video over and over.
Line haul truckers for ltl companies can make between 60k and 150k, depending on where you live, and most of the major ltl companies will pay you to get your cdl. Specific companies that pay that amount are old dominion, fedex freight(not ground or express), saia, and ups freight. Oh, and believe it or not, except for ups freight, the union companies tend to pay less.
Carpenters, plumbers, electricians and automotive mechanics make very good money,and you can always opt to start your own business in these trades,also these are skills you can use anywhere in the world and make good money
Absolutely I am a retired independent PLUMBER, I easily cleared 150hr
Don't work at car dealership as mechanic
King Tin why is that the dealership mechanics in mass make 45 an hour on average here in Massachusetts
ron sylvia I think he just means that there are better opportunities in that field.
Auto mechanics don’t make a lot, diesel is where it’s at. Your body is going to be shit tho
Nursing is a good field, there are so many options. I work as a nurse from home and ❤ it. Good video!
@@gwendolynquinn7777 no.
I started out as a Utility Mechanic Apprentice in NJ working on Natural Gas lines at 18$ and 6 years later I’m at 44$ and made over 130 grand this year with OT. School was not for me and I make more than most of the people I graduated with. I’m currently 30 but started at 24 years old.
Truck driving is also a great choice for a higher paying job. Granted it's extremely stressful and dangerous, and you wouldn't make much during your first year ($40k if you're lucky). But after you gain a year of driving experience, you can expect to make at the very least $50k, with up to $70k+ depending on what you're hauling and whether you're doing OTR (Over The Road) or a local job. And if you're an owner operator, meaning you have your own rig, you could easily make over $100k.
You forgot to mention Truck driver ,truck drivers make average $80 to $150k a year.
That my man is generally only true if you have years and years of experience AND can go OTR(over the road) for extended periods. Basically, you are kidding yourself. It's not like what you think.
Ive been driving for 17 years. You make about 40k a year on average as a driver
$80 to $150,000 is only if you're an owner/Operator and probably have your own authority.
Jason Hall I’ve been driving for less than a year and I would have hit 60k last year.
Venita Rosier My uncle makes a little over 150k each year. He drives all over the country and is gone weeks at a time but if u do it for like 5 or 6 years while living with someone else or on the truck and lessen your expenses then u can have a hefty chunk of money in the bank. U make 120,000/year and put 75k in the bank each year for 5 years then u have 375,000 dollars in the bank. If you are wanting to save up money and do it pretty quick then i would suggest this as a job. U would hqve more in the bank as an “uneducated” truck driver then some doctors or others who went through alot of education for their career.
As an air traffic controller I agree, most people have no idea what we do or how much we make. One thing you didn't mention is for ATC you either have to go to college OR be military trained. I have never sat in a college class room and have made as much as $240k in a year. Speaking of the military, it will pay you to learn a bunch of different trades that pay well on the outside. Finally, if you decide the military lifestyle is something you dig, it actually pays pretty well if you stick with it.
Will Bennett but then you become a military asset
That is true, I was a military asset for six years and it cost me 8 months in Iraq. However, I got paid the whole time, and walked straight into a well paying job. On top of that I had no debt. I went up in one of the poorest and remote corners of Appalachia to being in the top 2% of income earners in the nation in six years. None of that would have been possible if it were not have been for the military.
Will Bennett but wut if u got shot
You don't even NEED college. In some cases you just need to have graduated high school.
And 240k as an ATC would require working at a top level facility with high locality, as well as a large amount of OT
Software Engineer with a Bachelors degree makes easily 150k total comp right out of college at a Big Name. Depending on my stock I make 140 - 200k at 22. Also high paying internships in the summer pay for tuition.
You earned it......not everyone can be a Software Engineer. One of the highest paying 4 year jobs for a reason right out the gate.
Im a timber faller and i make $72 per hour for 7 hours per day no lunch break.
Falling trees on wildfires you need certification but ive made over $860.00 per day.
No GED required but you are pretty much hand chosen by veteran timber fallers based on your work ethic, reliability, intelligence and physical build. Smaller framed individuals generally aren't selected for safety and durability reasons.
It's good work if you like being outdoors and don't mind driving 2-3 hours per day. Usually 1-2 months off per year due to snow melt, but gives you time to go on vacation and or rest up.
I'm a tool and die maker. I make $150,000+ a year. Two years of trade school. It's a union shop. I did a 4 year apprenticeship. I have 25 years of experience
Union electrician, elevator operators, operating engineers top 3 I am a union glazier 32$/hr
How can you say dont go after a job for the money go after your passion when people need money to survive more than finding a passion that pays nothing.
65 to 100K a year many people cant even find that with a degree.
Many people major in college their passion and come out never finding a job in it.
The main resource people looking for today is money. You must do what you have to do in order to do what you want to do.
Ask someone with 3 college degree and working a 9 dollar an hr job if he/she rather a 100 K a year job than a passion she not getting anything for. They would choose the ladder.
Become a lineman 9 months of school then 4 year apprenticeship and once you get ur journymans card you could make $40-$45 an hour
is there any programs that pay for your school
Linemen, there are specialty schools out there for becoming a lineman that last about 9 weeks. In some states pay can get up to 40$ and hour. It’s a dangerous job but pays well and if you get on with a large power company like Duke Energy the benefits are incredible
Poor people think money will make them happy...rich people know the truth “money doesn’t buy the happiness “
I work with cryogenics. Delivery, maintenance, piping installs and planning, mixed gas and purity testing...etc. no college and earn about 70k.
How did you get into that?
I was going to school for eletrical engineering . now even before I saw this vid I'm thinking of becoming part of ibew local 82 since I have family there and I would be going in knowing the classes would be a breeze ( been taking calc when basic algebra is needed for the ibew )I'm only 20 and work in maintenance part time .so while becoming an electrician I could bank and start investing in real estate i live in the greater dayton area and after watching some people who invest in real estate I guess you could say dayton is a good market for rental properties idk but I'm so glad I'm learning all this now it really has opened my eyes . I guess you could say sometimes you open your own door and sometimes someone else opens one for you . Thank you for making all the great videos
It’s been 2 years. Did you do what you planned on doing?
I'm an Electrician apprentice 3rd year and it's not bad but you definitely need to grind it out and learn to love it.

Yup. Some days are easier some days are harder tasks. My mentality is i show up everyday and the rest will take care of itself.

I make 1400$ + a week painting houses done it for years, easy work and you can pretty much set your own hours just gotta bang down doors to start you starve in the beginning.
Ima try that then.
