Based on the lack of records, perhaps another would be President of the United States.
If people have the desire, look at circuit board designer positions. They are highly payed positions and normally don’t require a degree. The last person I talked to was making $160,000/year. When I retired, I was a design manager and worked my way up through the ranks. Good pay, clean working conditions.
Looks like good information. I plan to post on FB when I get home. Thanks.
Hilton Hotel is the happiest place to work.....hmmmmm.

I work in the art and advertising business and freelance on the side.
I started working as an apprentice in a studio while in art college and discovered that I was learning more there than I was in the classroom. So, with only a few credits left to achieve my BFA, I quit going.
I make six figures now. Not bad for a dummy.
My highest paying IT job (I have no degree) paid $125 an hour.
A degree helps, but once you hit 30, a lot of employers are more interested in what you’ve done with what education you have, not what shingles you can decorate your office wall with.
One of my daughters is a 30 year old Business Analyst in her first year. She’s making $60k.
She has a GED.
If you are older, back from the days when most people didn’t go to university, experience counts for more and they are more willing to forgive you for not having a degree, but if you are younger (maybe 30s or less) employers will generally expect you to have a degree, and getting your foot in the door in your early 20s without a degree is going to be hard...
There would be more of these jobs available, IF obummer wasn’t in charge. Things don’t look so hot especially if he gets a second term.

Construction is an interesting field.
Trying to start in Project Management generally takes a degree but in the skilled crafts the same is not required and supervisory paths are available from there. A field superintendent makes 60k to 120k depending on location and experience.
A good plumbing foreman makes 50 to 90k.
My friends son went into the Air Force specifically to be a controller. He spent a year in Iraq at Bagram. He got out and was hired immediately. After training for a few months out in Mo. he had three job offers to choose from. He chose Miami International making 75K just to start.
They left off POTUS. You don’t have to have any qualifications or meet any requirements for that position.
My oldest son, now 25 has had the technology gift since he was 13 years old and got his first professional IT designation at age 14, started working IT jobs when he was 16.
He really P.O’d me when he decided to major in political science. His perspective was that a degree was just a pedigree and his “gift” and experience were his ticket to a job.
Thankfully for him he was right and is now working deep within the IT bowels of mega corp. in a specialized field at the enterprise level reporting to the C-level officers.
He was initally hired at the lowest rung and could have gotten the job just based on having prof. certifications. It was his knowledge and experience that have advanced him.
