I'm 23 now and when I was 18 I didn't want to go to uni either I just didn't think it was me (changed my mind since then and have been seriously living it up in uni lol)
However, when I was 18 I didn't know what I wanted to do either and it sucks doesn't it? My advice would be to think about what you enjoy doing....
If you like cars get an aprentaship which will pay you to learn to be a mech. or, work for somewhere like Halfords
If you like music, film etc try Virgin or HMV
You see the point I'm getting at, if you don't try to find a job which you'll enjoy you'll hate going to work. Min. wage sucks at 18 but it does get better and there are a lot of 18 year olds who work their way up in their jobs by starting at the bottom and it can be more useful then a uni degree.
As a p.s. don't dismiss uni completely just yet, you have plenty of time to change your mind plus, if you earn your own income for 3 or more years you get more grant money off the government!

Its not unusual to not know exactly where you want to be going at your age ...
try different jobs and see what grabs ya ..
if you want to earn good money without going to Uni ,,, try getting into "sales ",,,, there is good money to be made for the right type of people ,,,,
I am in sales and like you have no Degree but earn really good money and enjoy my job ..
