You have three choices: Mop & broom, french fries, or start your own business. You need money and a great idea for the latter.

Little to none. Take it from me. I finally went back to school at 28 and will be graduating with my Bachelors in May at 31. Stay in school. The options for you are SO much more than just with a high school degree. If you want to live the rest of your life living pay check to pay check, then go with the high school diploma for the rest of your life.

If you want to make a decent living and have a stable career, your best bet may be to learn a skilled trade. Something plumbing, carpentry, auto mechanic. Of course, these don't require college but they do require training and some time as an apprentice. There are no easy routes...unless Donal Trump is your dad!

options include but not limited to:
truck driver, construction, electrician, plumber, mason, factory worker(wide variety of jobs), military, warehouse worker, retail worker, waiter, bartender, cook, janitor/cleaner, auto mechanic
there are many options that can still let you earn a decent living but I would still recommend going to trade school and you could definetely widen your career opportunities- you could work towards this at a community college while you work another job- options include culinary school, auto body or mechanics, CAD or computer systems, general 2 year degree with emphasis in business.
many people do not have college educations and still make good livings- my mom works in a factory and my dad operates heavy machinery and we always got by.

You can try affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing is creating websites to help sell other people's products and generating revenue through advertising.
Running your own business beats working for somebody else. There's a lot of room for opportunity in this field and the money makes itself. A good book for information on affiliate marketing is the rich jerk. Check it out here

Try to get a job with a company at entry level with room to advance in the company... For example you may start off as a receptionist or mail room clerk and maybe can advance to office manger or supervisor....

you will eventually want to go to college, because most jobs require degrees, unless you want to start your own buisness or something.
