    Dental hygienist. $65-85K

    Mechanic (diesel) $40-60K

    Many types of medical technicians/therapists $40-60K

    Registered nurse. $50K

    Also, look in to a program for industrial wlders. I hear you mayhave to pay upwards of $18K for the program, tools and apprenticeship but they are in high demand and pay $25/hr to start as well as being a union position.

    Good luck!

    Go into heath sciences. Medical technicians earn a lot for a little education. Ex. Electrocardiograph Technician; $38,571- $66,797, High school diploma and on the job training (basically what they do is they read the machines that read pulses and stuff-- you know, those machines that beep, and when a person dies, there's a straight line across?)

    Source(s): http://www.heathcarejobsstarthere.com/ Look for other jobs there too; a lot of them can give some impressive wages. They even help you find an opening for the job of your choice nearby!

    I think you should consider your own interests and skills above the length of schooling and the pay level...
