Whats a job that pays ALOT of money but 4 years of college?

Question

4 years or less of college and makes above 40,000 a year?

Answer 1

Nursing and engineering. Both have great pay and are only four year degrees.

Answer 2

Intellectual property (patents, trademarks, copyrights) secretaries and paralegals can often train on the job, with full pay. The pay is quite good in major metropolitan areas. You must be very dependable because of the deadlines, and you must read, write, and type well, and able to calculate comfortably. The level of calculation is more like what you would do in retail or light industry, not college level math, as you mostly calculate fees. The job is not easy. A lot of people leave due to stress and overtime. Fortunately, there is a lot of routine, so once you learn it, it will deliver a good standard of living for a long time. Intellectual property secretarial work is similar all over the US, because the laws you deal with are federal, so patent prosecution is the same in any state. With a good trainer and experience, you can prosper. Training times are set by the firm. You may get as little as a few weeks of training on the firm's basic systems or you may get months of hands-on mentorship from a professional trainer. However, it may take as long as two years for you to have the volume of work cross your desk that would give you experience in the entire patent process. That is, two years before you start feeling like you've seen just about everything that is normal in patent prosecution. After almost 15 years, I still learn something new every week, if not every day. I did not need a credential of any sort, although I'm sure some credentials are helpful. Good luck with your career.

I'm not absolutely certain, but I think there isn't any such thing as what you're asking for. You can make good money as a pharmacist straight out of college... but I believe that's at least 6 years of school. There is always the possibility of becoming an RN with a Bachelor of Science degree. RN's make pretty decent money starting out but I think it depends on what area of the country you live as to the actual annual dollar amount. Hopefully someone else will be more knowledgeable.

Due to a bachelors degree in finance and banking experience (while I was in college), I have a Sr. Management position with one of the world's largest institutions earning $90k base salary and quarterly incentives, career growth opportunity, flexible work schedule, nice people, professional environment, corporate life, and I'm 25/female.....

And I'm serious....Not bs-ing to get 2 points. :) If you need further assistance or guidance, you're more than welcome to message me thru my profile. If you like customer service and sales, then this might be the path for you.......However, only you can determine that...Good Luck!


***OR you can get your degree in Engineering. My husband is a Mechanical Engineering Manager making $115k. He's 29 yrs old.....You must like designing products, excellent in math, and enjoy managing the design team.

working in the casino industry here in Las Vegas.. my boyfriend makes over 40,000 as an entertainment assistant manager.. you just have to move up through experience. he's trying to get a degree anyway, but even without, he makes good money

Answer 6

To an extent, how educated you are correlates to how much money you make. Go to D and W simpson's website and look at how much actuaries get paid with 8exams passed and 10years of experience. Few of them make less than $200k per year.

Answer 7

I think you'll like my answer best:
My daughter is starting College to be a Dental Hygienist which earns $70,000+ annually. One year prerequisites, plus two of years school. My Hygienist earns $76,000.
She chats with me while she cleans my teeth. Sounds like hard work, huh?
Look into it. You will learn a lot about anatomy in school, more than a nurse has to, according to my hygienist.

Answer 8

no really a case worker makes a nice amount o money right out of college.

Answer 9

the general rule of thumb is the more college you go to, the more money you'll make...if you want to make a lot, you have to go to a lot of school.

the other rule is the more dangerous it is, the higher pay. truck drivers usually make a lot (and you don't need any school for that, just a license).
