A 23 year old +2 graduate just migrated to the US with a green card. His sole intention is to make money so he can support a family of 6 back home and is willing to work multiple jobs/80 hours a week if offered. What are some jobs that do not require higher college degree yet pay decent ?

ufffffff!! did you win the DV? :@ :@

Don't expect to make money with a high school degree. Jobs are physical for most high school graduates and pay is low. Having seen people work in the Ocean city, I do not advise people to go for such work.

A college degree makes a great difference in your pay. Since you have a green card, go for a college degree for now and work part time to pay for your college.(I am assuming that you go to some cheap universities). Top liberal arts colleges are pretty expensive.

80 hrs a week * $ 8/ hr = 640
Tax, SS, Medicare= 130.00
Net Pay= 510.00
A month Net Pay= 2040.00
Rent= 500.00
Food= 200.00
Unitlities= 150.00
Cell Phone= 50.00
Health insurance= 150.00
Car = 500.00
Misc = 200.00

Savings = 290.00
For Everything else there is Mastercard, or better yet College Education.

Good Luck, Best Wishes

bibas100 - oie!! what's going on?? how come you never pick up my phone calls?? :S
and that friend of yours i told him to tell you to call me ke!! ufffffff!!!
call me right away!! i need to talk to you ke!! :S :S
:)

if you have green card..then go to temporary work place...they will find job for you..if you go for government construction you can earn lots of money...

Statics has proven that There is not much of difference between a college grad
and highschool grad overall earning life long.Infact sometimes highschoolers
earn more.there are several reasons for it.Saying that i am not discouraging
anyone to go college.there are other advatages.So if ur sole purpose is to make money
then there can be jobs even like plumbing,eletricians,carpenters who earn more than $100k a year

it takes years of training and experience to be a plumber, electrician or carpenters to earn more than 100k. If you could just take a couple of months getting the training and earn 100k, everyone would do that.

and stats says, a HS grad makes 200K more than without HS degree in his lifetime.

But more than money , whats important is Education.

so mr.babal...tell him to get a job, so he can maintain his priority, and support his family, but also think long term and think about getting a degree.

IMI,
I don't know where your statistics came from but as far as I know the difference between high school graduates' earning and college graduates' earning is significant.

It is the earnings of Bachelors Vs. Masters that has little difference. Check your facts first before you pitch in your comments.

And I wonder how many high school graduates earn $100K a year...even those with PHD struggle for such a sum unless you can climb the corporate ladder....professors are paid around that sum in good schools...

It is absolutely insane to take a few examples and generalize the scene. Gates himself opted out of school...doesn't provide a fine example when it boils down to us buddy.

hahahahahah

tetekai joke garana maan lagera bhanideko ni:)
College najane ra padna maan nalagneko lagi enocouragement.hahahah

ok on serious note:
An Average week salary for Highschool grad is :$598
an average week salary for College grad is:$896
Now consider this an avg college grad after 4-5 years in college carries
avg $20000 loan +interest
Now the person who has saved 5 years of life worked 4-5 years more than
college grads and saved $20000.:)
So, at the end of the day it is not much difference .you see what i am saying.
You go to school to get more knowledge not only for money!!

correction:Person with only highschool makes $506 a week :(

hahahahaha IMI --"new sajha economist in the making" hahahahahahaa oops j/k.

hahahahaha..., as per my observations, the difference that you have estimated between a high school graduate and college grad is 298 per week. which makes it 15496 per year. so it will take just above a couple of years for a college grad to get over the loss against the high school grad during schooling. after that he will be earning some 16K more than the high school grad per year which is not bad in terms of percentage. also, if he goes for grad school the difference amount will at least double in general case. getting higher education will open more options for him as well in terms of expertise.

JPT analysis gardine hahahahahhaa.

Loote

Correction:Person with only highschool makes $506 a week :(

=============================

hahaha. in that case the difference is even more 20,280 per annum. so it won't even take 2 freaking years to cover the loss for a college grad. hehe


Loote

Good Observation Loote..
you are indegeniuous..lol:)
ok !!!mathmatician lai kha jetna sakne ..baba
Afu ta college gaieyena kya :)

Ani the end of 25 years ,the difference comes around 300-400k com'on 25 years!!!what about the torture you have to go thru school:)mental abuse .hahahaha

Amrica ma ta ulto huncha ni:)
more you earn more you pay taxes and everything else.heheheh
So advice:DON"T EARN!!!live is Social Security!!!we will pay the taxes ,you bums have fun!!:)

ImI, with the info you gave, a college grad can earn approx 300$ per week more than HS grad...so, $1200 per month, and abt 15600 more per yr...Now, one doesn't plan to live for just 3 or 4 yrs....how much can one save over life time..you do the math..

ok i'll do it for you...over 20 yrs period, a college grad will earn 312,000 more than HS grad.

In 5 yrs, HS grad earns 155,480.

In twenty yrs HS grad earns: 621,920
In 20 yrs, college grad earns: 931,840

Thus college grad can save abt 150,000 more than HS grad in 20 yrs time....after compenstating the time loss for undergrad studies.

I think you're shortsighted. wear a pair of glasses..

i didn't know loote had already posted :P...get a double decker...

nails,
u need to talk to me or u want to talk to me? u know the difference right?

well, i'm pretty busy these days. ani, my cell phone is running out of minutes...n i cant take calls after 9 for some reasons........hehe...will call u next month hai...

villian sajahuser .. is coming to bite me:)
what fuss fuss .. i know college grads make more .to make that wait 25 years with ur calculation 150K more.hahahahah..
ok now quit school... there is nothing for u in school ..hahahaha


bibas lai .. bhau kadai cha ...hahahahah..

oye shortsighted person, i calculated for 20 yrs, not 25....and you think i'm still in school?....:D

P.S: and to make more you don't even have to wait for 20 yrs...it's just the calculation i made....I hope you can calculate how long it takes to make up.....ya do that...your arithmetic might improve. :P
