Sure you can get a high paying job. But only if you have marketable skills. Otherwise, you can forget it. This is true for the US and most of Europe.

In the past, men from the Phillipines joined some branch of the military to get some training and funds to get a higher education. I think that still works. I think I'd join the Navy so you don't get sent right to Iraq. Now, if the thought of Iraq doesn't terrify you, you can get a job with one of the American Companies who are sending workers over there to do everything from cooking to truck driving. If you stay in the compound like you are supposed to it's really not all that dangerous but of course, truck drivers face more danger. Another way to get a good start w/o school is to start your own business. I know a young man here in my city who started a business installing fancy stereo systems in cars and built that into installing home theatre systems and is 25 and a millionaire. His dad is a preacher so you can see that he didn't have a lot of family money.You just have to figure out a need and fill it. Good Luck and God Bless

I hate to say it, but you have very little chance of finding a highly paid job without a degree, and a poor chance even if you do have a degree.
I know what you mean about poverty affecting educational opportunities (I also come from a country that was nearly always poor, Ireland). BUt, if you want to get a good job, and I mean REALLY want to get a good job, you could always try working your way to it. It takes a long time, but the cream always rises to the top.
Good luck.

You need a skill such as plumbing or bricklaying. Otherwise you will end up with a very lowpaying job or no job.
