Well, If you don’t have a highschool diploma is hard to get a good pay. The only thing I can think of, is to be a self-employed person. You can start doing Housekeeping, gain experience, and have your own company. It’s gonna be hard….but everything in life takes effort!.That’s my opinion.

Think twice…get your diploma, and go to college. Think in your future. I’m self-employed, have a bunch of customers, and I have a good pay….BUT I still go to college because I want to get a degree. WORK HARD FOR YOUR FUTURE. Nothing in life that is good for us, is easy to get.

Get any job for now. Study and pass your GED, and then find a company that does tuition reimbursement. Even if you only take two classes at a time, you will be working toward your degree. And, you’ll have the added benefit of making money at the same time and gaining valuable experience in the work force. By the time you finish your degree you will be extremely marketable. And you’ll be used to work and study at the same time, so you might find yourself going for a masters while working at a better job than the one that got you through college.

The added benefit is that by focusing on work and school, you’ll be surrounding yourself with success oriented people and you’ll keep yourself out of trouble in social areas of your life as well.

Just because you didn’t finish high school doesn’t mean that you don’t like learning. It just means that high school wasn’t a good fit. But you can find so many types of colleges, and you should be able to find something that fits.

You are always better off w/ a diploma than w/o one but if you have to do without go to a trade school and learn a good paying trade, such as electrician, plumbing, etc. training though I don’t know – they may also require a diploma b/c the skills you get in high school teach you how to read, write, and balance a checkbook so you can have the skills you need to to make it once you get out.

Get your GED and then go to a trade or vo-tech school. The days of walking into a manufacturing or other blue collar job that pays reasonably well without any education are gone. You will be looking at minimum wage jobs without at least you GED.

Unless you plan on getting really personal with a poll and learning to dance erotically, I would suggest getting your diploma or your GED and then go on and get your degree!! Otherwise get use to the minimum wage gigs.
