The Best Paying Jobs You Can Get With A High School Degree

Going to college used to be a nearly sure way of getting a steady job. But as many recent graduates will attest, this is no longer the case. However, there are hundreds of thousands of high-paying jobs that don’t require a degree. 24/7 Wall St. has identified the ten highest-paying jobs that only require a high school education.
In order to identify the kinds of positions high school graduates without college degrees may want to consider, 24/7 Wall St. examined the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Occupation Employment Statistics database. The government report, which provides the salaries and number of workers in every major job category in the United States, also provides information on salary and those job positions that do not necessarily require a bachelor’s degree. The results where then sorted by wage, in order to identify the ten jobs that have the highest median annual salary. Along with salary, we also show how much these jobs are expected to grow over the next 10-15 years, and which states have the highest concentration of these positions.
Our analysis indicates college education is not the only route to a high-paying job. Rather than spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on higher education, high school graduates can look to these high-paying sectors that are going to be adding thousands of new jobs over the next few years.
These are the ten highest-paying jobs that you can get with a high school degree.

10. Captains, Mates, Pilot of Water Vessel
> Median annual income: $64,180
> High-end annual income: $117,310
> No. of jobs in U.S.: 29,280
> No. of jobs by 2018: 38,800
> Increase by 2018: +37%
> Highest concentration of jobs: Louisiana, Hawaii, Alaska
Life on a commercial ship can involve long hours of isolation or dangerous conditions, which means the pay is significantly better than most blue-collar jobs. In order to be a sailor on a merchant vessel, one can either enroll in a marine academy, or sign on as a deckhand. The latter option has no prerequisites and only requires a few days of basic training. Deckhands make a median annual wage of just under $35,000. After a sailor has gained a few years of experience, crewmen are in line for promotion to deck officers or assistant engineer, then finally to engineer, mate or captain. According to the BLS, “excellent job opportunities are expected as demand for people working in the shipping industry, particularly officers, is expected to be greater than the number of people wishing to enter these occupations.”
9. Gaming Manager
> Median annual income: $66,960
> High-end annual income: $116,070
> No. of jobs in U.S.: 6,200
> No. of jobs by 2018: 6,900
> Increase by 2018: +12%
> Highest concentration of jobs: Nevada, Mississippi, Oklahoma
While a high school degree is often the only formal education you need to become a gaming manager at a casino, it’s not exactly an easy job to get, compared to some of the other occupations on the list. First, because of the scarcity of casinos, there are only 6,900 jobs in the entire country. In addition, becoming a manager at a gaming venue usually involves working one’s way up from the very bottom as a dealer, which is, according to the BLS, one of the worst-paying jobs in the country.  Eventually, however, experience and seniority can result in promotion, and a dealer can move from having one of the lowest-paying jobs in the U.S. to making over $110,000 a year.
8. Detectives and Criminal Investigators
> Median annual income: $68,820
> High-end annual income: $119,320
> No. of jobs in U.S.: 110,640
> No. of jobs by 2018: 130,900
> Increase by 2018: +18%
> Highest concentration of jobs: New Mexico, Arizona, Texas
A high school diploma is usually all one needs to become a detective for a city, state or the federal government. Detectives, as well as police officers, are subjected to “rigorous personal and physical qualifications.” Very rarely do these qualifications extend to a bachelor’s degree. Applicants can be selected as detectives as soon as they join the force, or they can earn the position after a time as an officer. Detectives have one of the highest rates of on-the-job injury and illness. Because of the stressful and dangerous nature of the job, the annual median wage of a detective or criminal investigator is nearly $70,000 each year. As long as the population continues to grow, there will always be new positions for public defenders. The number of detectives in the country is expected to grow by 20,000 by 2018.
7. Elevator Installers
> Median annual income: $70,910
> High-end annual income: $101,390
> No. of jobs in U.S.: 20,430
> No. of jobs by 2018: 27,100
> Increase by 2018: +32%
> Highest concentration of jobs: Maryland, Hawaii, New York
According to the BLS, despite their title, most installers work not only on elevators, but also on “escalators, chairlifts, dumbwaiters, moving walkways, and similar equipment.” Working as installers can be difficult, as they can often spend hours in a cramped space or hanging in a service shaft. Consequently, the rate of work-related injury for the occupation is substantially higher than the national average. In order to be hired, a potential technician needs to enroll in an apprenticeship program, which includes training on the job, as well as instruction in a classroom. Because of the work conditions and the level of testing and certification required, installers make a median annual income of more than $70,000, with the upper 10% making more than $100,000
6. Web Developers
> Median annual income: $75,650
> High-end annual income: $119,940
> No. of jobs in U.S.: 961,000
> No. of jobs by 2018: 1,247,800
> Increase by 2018: +30%
> Highest concentration of jobs: Virginia, District of Colombia, Maryland
While most web developers are now required to have a bachelor’s or associate degree, certification can be enough to get a job at a major company. Start-ups have been known to hire support specialists, and with substantial experience, developers can be hired right out of high school. With experience as a support specialist and additional certification, these workers can advance to administrative positions. This can involve managing a network, designing and building a company website, and maintaining the company’s web security. According to the BLS, “More of these workers will be needed to accommodate the increasing amount of data sent over the Internet, as well as the growing number of Internet users. In addition, as the number of services provided over the Internet expands, Web administrators and developers will continue to see employment increases.” The number of web developer positions is expected to rise by as much as 30% by 2018.


5. Nuclear Power Plant Operator
> Median annual income: $75,650
> High-end annual income: $119,940
> No. of jobs in U.S.: 5,080
> No. of jobs by 2018: 6,000
> Increase by 2018: +17%
> States with the highest concentration of jobs: New York, Florida, Massachusetts
Because of the technical nature of maintaining and monitoring a nuclear power plant, college graduates do have an advantage in making a senior position. However, this is not mandatory, and high school graduates can be accepted into a position. Most of the training occurs on-the-job and in classrooms provided by the plant. In order to keep their positions, operators must pass random drug and alcohol screenings, a medical examination, maintain a license, and take regular refresher courses. According to the BLS, “Overall employment of power plant operators, distributors, and dispatchers is projected to experience little or no change, but job opportunities are expected to be excellent because of the large number of retiring workers who must be replaced, an increased demand for energy, and recent legislation that paves the way for a number of new plants.”
4. Police Chief
> Median annual income: $78,260
> High-end annual income: $123,630
> No. of jobs in U.S.: 102,200
> No. of jobs by 2018: 105,200
> Increase by 2018: +2.9%
> Highest concentration of jobs: New York, Rhode Island, Arizona
According to the BLS, “Most police and detectives learn much of what they need to know on the job, often in their agency’s training academy.” This experience is the training required to eventually make the upper brass at a department. After six months to three years, depending on the location and size of the department, police officers are subject to promotion. They can then, based on performance and a written exam, move up to corporal, sergeant, lieutenant, captain, or even chief of the department. Chiefs and other upper brass make a median wage of $78,260 per year, with the top 10% earning a median of $123,630.
3. Construction Managers
> Median annual income: $83,860
> High-end annual income: $150,250
> No. of jobs in U.S.: 551,100
> No. of jobs by 2018: 645,800
> Increase by 2018: +17%
> States with the highest concentration of jobs: Alaska, Texas, Maryland
Construction managers oversee a team of workers on a project and are responsible for scheduling, coordination and hiring of contractors. While some companies are starting to require bachelor’s degrees, this is by no means mandatory. Any construction worker with significant experience and skill has the potential to make manager after gaining some additional classroom experience. Managers earn a median annual income of more than $80,000, with those overseeing high profile projects earning over $150,000.
2. Software Developers
> Median annual income: $87,970
> High-end annual income: $133,110
> No. of jobs in U.S.: 499,280
> No. of jobs by 2018: 514,800
> Increase by 2018: +17%
> Highest concentration of jobs: Washington, Colorado, Virginia
These days, most major employers are looking for software developers with at least a bachelor’s degree and an array of computer skills. However, some companies with a large number of developers will also hire people with a certificate and a great deal of experience. Software developers, or “applications developers” build computer programs for businesses and consumers, and need to have thorough knowledge of computer programming.” This knowledge can be gained through night classes or an online course. Software developers generally make more than any other programmer. The median annual income is $87,970, with the upper range making more than $130,000. Like web developers, and most of programming jobs, the number of software developers is expected to increase substantially over the next ten years.
1. Commercial Airline Pilot
> Median annual income: $103,210
> High-end annual income: $139,330
> No. of jobs in U.S.: 68,580
> No. of jobs by 2018: 83,300
> Increase in jobs by 2018: +21%
> Highest concentration of jobs: Alaska, Kentucky, Arizona
Former Air Force and Navy pilots have traditionally had the fast track to a commercial license because of the flight time and experience they’d gained. That holds true today, and most major airlines also require some college education from their pilots. However, there are plenty of smaller companies that will take any individual with enough logged flight time and aircraft knowledge. Because of the long hours logged, the constant vigilance required, and the substantial time away from home, pilots make a median income of more than $100,000. The number of pilots is expected to increase by more than 20% in the next 17 years, well more than the national average.

HST

Just as Toronto’s real estate market begins to recover, realtors and home builders are worried Ontario’s new harmonized sales tax
could send sales plummeting again.
The number of home sales in the GTA in the first half of May was up 3% over the same period last year, after a series of year-over-year drops, the Toronto Real Estate Board said today. The average price was $399,811, about the same as last May.
“We’re out of the trenches for sure,” said Jason Mercer, senior manager of market analysis for the board.
But the harmonized sales tax looms on the housing horizon. The tax will come into effect in July, 2010, combing the 5% GST and 8% PST into one 13% tax. The HST will apply to new homes and to all home closing costs, creating thousands of dollars more in taxes.
Currently, new homes are exempt from PST. Under the HST, new homes worth less than $400,000 will qualify for a 6% tax rebate, but new homes worth more than $500,000 will be subject to an additional 8% tax.
This would mean an additional $30,000 on a $500,000 home.
The HST will hit new home buyers in Toronto harder because real estate prices are higher here, Ontario Homebuilders Association president Frank Giannone said during a meeting with the National Post editorial board.
“A $500,000 new home in Toronto doesn’t get you much,” said Mr. Giannone, who is also president of the Fram Building Group.
Mr. Giannone said the HST is a good idea, but current plans mean the entire purchase price is taxed once the $400,000 threshold is reached, and that could discourage middle-income earners from buying a new home.
“If you don’t have your own place yet, or you have your own place and you’re planning on moving up, you’ve hit a wall,” Mr. Giannone said.
Only 7% of home buyers will be affected by the new tax, said Alicia Johnston, spokesperson for the Ontario Ministry of Finance.
The HST may only apply to new homes, but closing costs on all homes will be hit with the 15% tax. This will add approximately $2,000 extra in taxes per sale for costs like home inspectors, lawyers and real estate commissions, said Toronto Real Estate Board chief government and media relations officer Von Palmer.
The additional $2,000 could hinder buyers who already struggle to save enough for a down payment, Mr. Palmer said, adding new taxes are not what the industry needs during a recession.
“There is never a good time for a new tax, but this is bad,” Mr. Palmer said.
He suggested the closing costs be exempt from the HST, but the government isn’t considering that option.
“We can’t exempt everything, otherwise it wouldn’t be a harmonized sales tax,” Ms. Johnston said.
Not everyone in the Ontario housing business thinks the HST means gloom and doom for the housing industry in the GTA.
“The HST is one factor that will impact sales next year, but it is only one of many factors,” said Ted Tsiakopoulos, regional economist for the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation.
The Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation predicts sales in Ontario will pick up next year by 4.1% for resale homes and 1.9% for home starts.

Making ‘Square Footage’ Mandatory

Making ‘Square Footage’ Mandatory

29 10 2010 Would you buy a house if you didn’t know how many bedrooms it had?
Probably not.
So why do we see condominium listings without any indication of how many square feet the unit is?
I’ve been pushing this issue at the TREB level for quite some time, and it looks like we’re making progress…
measurement.jpg

When filling out the “MLS Data Sheet” for new listings; be it condominiums or houses, you’re shown which fields are “mandatory” and which fields are not by the colour-coding of the category.
Surprisingly, there are only a half-dozen categories that are not mandatory, and two of these are among the most important in my mind: square footage and age.
For example, “Basement” is a mandatory category, which is absolutely ridiculous, considering I’ve never seen a condominium with a basement.
“Fireplace/Stove” is also mandatory, as is “Family Room.”  We’re talking condos here, not houses!
So then why aren’t “Square Footage” and “Age of Building” mandatory?
That’s a question I first asked two years ago at the Condominium Task Force’s introductory meeting.
We were all asked to propose ideas or perhaps to complain to eachother about things we’d like to change, and I gave the group the very example I posed above – about the notion of buying a house without knowing how many bedrooms as it can be compared to buying a condo without knowing the square footage.
So much of what we do in the condo market is based on square footage, whether is has to do with pricing the condo itself or recommending the unit to our clients.
It boggles my mind how we have continued to conduct business in this industry without ever having made the “square footage” requirement a necessary aspect of MLS listings.
There’s nothing I hate more than going on to MLS and seeing this:
sqftmls.JPG
There is NOTHING written in the “Apx Sqft” field.
Nothing!
I think this is lazy and unprofessional on the part of any Realtor who lists a property for sale, but then again, if we wanted to talk about lazy and unprofessional, we could just look at the fact that there are no room measurements or descriptions either.  I digress…
The major issue with making the square footage field mandatory has to do with accountability, which of course could lead to significant legal disputes.
If a seller and an agent listed the square footage as “575″ on the MLS listing, and the square footage turned out to be 550, then it could lead to a serious legal problem.
This of course leads into an even more detailed discussion about how to correctly determine square footage, but that’s another story.
Once upon a time, I proposed that we make the square footage field mandatory, and we make it an exact amount!  The seller of a condo and the Realtor for that seller should be able to determine through various sources exactly what the square footage is!
But this idea was voted down, and for good reason, as I soon found out.
Before we ever considered implementing this idea, there was much work to be done.
So in the meantime, we moved to shrink the categories from “500-699″ and “700-1100″ down to individual categories of 100 square feet.  That would at least give the buyer or MLS-browser a better idea of the actual square footage.  After all, isn’t “700-1100″ a ridiculous category?  You’re talking about a $350,000 condo versus a $550,000 condo right there!
I think that shrinking the categories is a good start, but what does it accomplish if the categories themselves aren’t mandatory?
So again, we come back to the issue of how to correctly determine square footage, as we could be opening up an enormous legal can of worms.
The most common way to determine square footage is to provide the original builder’s plans from when the condo was being constructed.  As well all know, every element of a pre-construction condo is “subject to change with no notice,” so the builder’s plan may not be correct.  However, I think this is probably the most common method, as seen from this MLS excerpt below:
asperbuilder.JPG
This could either be viewed as a potential attempt to lay fault with the builder in the event that the square footage quoted isn’t deemed accurate, or it could be viewed as a source for the measurement and it can be taken approximately.
Most MLS listings will say “approximately” anyways.
Personally, I think if we’re going to quote a square footage on MLS, approximate or not, we should provide a source.
This was brought up at our last Condominium Task Force meeting, as we want to avoid opening the door to lawsuits by trying to determine which sources are reputable and which aren’t.
For example, you can’t just say “715 square feet as per seller’s best guess.”  That’s not helping anybody.
But you could have a list of ‘authorized’ sources that sellers and/or Realtors can work with.
MPAC provides property assessment values but they do much more than that!  There are dozens of tools on their website, including the square footage of any condominium unit in the city.  For a nominal fee of $5.00, the user can find out the square footage, although we still don’t know MPAC’s source!  Sidebar: I wish we could force Realtors to spend the measly $5.00 to help make MLS more useful and informative, but that would be too much to ask…
PlanIt is another option, and a great one at that.  They’re used more commonly for houses than condos, but for a modest fee (a few hundred dollars) you can have your entire condo mapped out and measured within a hair.  I assure you – they’re more than just a guy with a measuring tape!  They use state-of-the-art engineering software and laser measuring to produce a floor plan and an accurate account of square footage.
The status certificate can be another source of the illusive square footage measurement, although not every status certificate has the exact square footage quoted.  I find that if the development is new and the developer/builder also has a property management company who is actively managing that building, then you’ll more than likely have access to the correct square footage.
All of these options would be reasonable to quote as a source for the square footage on the MLS listing.
And in my humble opinion, I think Realtors should spend an hour Googling the building to try and find floor plans, wherever they may be hiding.  If I had a listing in a building of less than three years in age, I can almost guarantee you I could find the corresponding floor plan somewhere on the Internet.
But I understand how TREB can be weary of “forcing” the issue since we don’t really have a definition of how to measure square footage.  Even developers themselves measure it differently!
If you look at the real estate boards across Canada, you’ll see that some boards have the field as mandatory, and some don’t.
But I sometimes feel embarrassed when I bring a client to a condo and they ask, “How many square feet is this?”  As I’m forced to answer, “Ummm……I think it’s about…..maybe 670 to 690……ish….”
Baby steps.
First, we’ll shrink the fields from 500-699 and 700-1100 to increments of 100 and hopefully that will help buyers as they browse on MLS.
Then, we’ll make the field itself mandatory, so that you can no longer list a property without even giving a range!
Eventually, I’d love to hammer out a list of acceptable sources so that we can encourage listing agents to find the square footage and detail it on the listing.
“As Per Builder Plan”
“As Per MPAC”
“As Per Status Certificate”
Wow, do I ever love the sound of that!
Yes, we’re making the world a better place, one step at a time…
