If you don't have any professional experience and you don't have a natural affinity to programming and you don't consider yourself a little smarter than average then maybe trades.
In San Francisco, you can pass a test for Backflow Water Annual Testing and then you can go out and charge $250 to test peoples backflow water systems for 15 minutes.
Police officers in San Francisco make about $250K on average.
People don't talk about these jobs because if more people did them they wouldn't pay so much so they aren't plastered all over Reddit.
If I didn't have a degree I would be looking for these loopholes that no one is talking about.
