The main reason i want a qualification and then do higher studies is for a chance for a good paying job.

Isn't that everyones aim in life? to make more money? But apparently doing a crappy full time job gives u 9-15k per annum and with a ug degree does the salary range go very far from 20k?

How does some1 earn money without qualifications? I've heard people invest in the stock market.. But tthat'smore like gambling iisn'tit.. where there is a risk of loosing.. ANd the other option might be staring our own business.. well my father had his own business and it ddidn'twork out too well... and im not the guy who is outspoken and can do sales..

Is there any kind of job that can pay you a good salary so that u dont think Ohh im poor... i mean without qualifications

Well having more qualifications is supposedly the way to make more money - but I graduated last June and apart from a crappy call centre job I havent found anything worthwhile! I'd still say it's worth getting qualified though.

All I would say is think very carefully about what you want to do, unfortunately everyone has to start at the bottom and due to the recession it doesnt even seem like a degree does you much good! On the other side however loads of people are soon going to be in the same situation as you if you leave school/college and there just arent enough jobs to go around. If I were you I'd get qualifications and hopefully theyll help in the future, you will struggle to earn good money without them once things pick up with jobs. Still make sure its something you want to do, nothing worse than being stuck in a crappy job bored out of your face just for the money!

Good luck dude.

OH YEAH!

Find technical jobs that pays well and have an experience to it. some technical jobs can be gained through experience without you going to college. for example in mining industry, being a driller machine operator underground will give you more than 140,000 a year and you can be like one by first having sidelines. there are also some companies that provide free training in sales and at the same time you work for them. if you do really well in that sales, its expected that they will promote you. you can also start working in the local community services for starters and work your way to the top.

basically you need to experience if you don't have college degree. you just need to chose what you like that is achievable and stick to it.

the first new zealand apprentice didn't finish any degree and only had experience at all if it will make you feel better. the current new zealand prime minister lived in a state house and benefits when he was young.
