you can become a nurse or an x-ray tecnician with an associates
There really isn’t any. You should continue your schooling. After you get your bachelors you’ll be looking back wondering what you were thinking
I hear McDonalds is hiring.
associates: dental hygenist, fashion designer, paralegal
with AA degree, I think dental hygiene or nursing or physical therapy, mechanic, etc.
with high school diploma, (Hard to think) dish wisher or cashier or door person,etc.
the highest paying career is in sales and some companies don’t require a college degree.
think about it

I am currently going to school for an associates in nursing. Depending on where you live you can make up to about $28-30/hr with an associates in nursing (RN). I hope this helps.
Bill Gates didn’t have a degree for the first 20+ years he ran Microsoft. I think Harvard gave him an honorary degree last year. He made a few hundred billion dollars. I think that’s the highest paying job out there. So, start your own company if you want to make a lot of money. Don’t get a degree, you won’t look like a closer, so a lot of positions won’t be open to you. Associates in Computer Science can do well, but more education = more money, unless you’re the entrepeneurial type. In that case, you can make as much money as your talent, luck, and ruthlessness will allow.
STARBUCKS IS NOT AN OPTION.
I worked there and got paid under $9.00. That guy sounds confused. You DO get free coffee and pastries though which is nice.
If you don’t have a degree and if you like healthcare or are interested in entering the feild a good place to start is earning your EMT certificate. It takes less than a year and you start at around $12 per hour. Paramedic is a little over a year and you start around $16 per hour. Oh, and you have to have a clean driving record which I do not have so I decided to get another certificate.
I just finished my Phelbotomy Cert, it took 8 weeks… and will be starting around $20 per hour $30 if I get into the Emergency Room since I have my EMT cert. Those starting wages are without benefits.

Starbucks. Around 20 dollars an hour and full benifits
