It used to be that in order to earn a six-figure salary, you had to have a college degree, or many, many years of experience in a niche field. But times have changed, and they’ve changed a lot!
You see, today there are a lot of great paying jobs out there, from employers who are actively hiring, that don’t require you to have spent four or more years sitting in a college classroom…
Many of which can pay up to six figures.
Today, FindYourJobNow.com will share 25 great paying jobs that fit this description, we’ll show you the average salary for each, and we’ll show you how to find one of them near you.
Now, although the following jobs don’t typically require you to have a four year college degree, you will see that many of them, if not most, will require you to have some sort of specialized training, certifications or licenses.
But regardless of these technical requirements (which can normally be obtained in a relatively short amount of time), you most likely don’t need a college degree to land one of them.
