Real World Careers: Why College Is Not the Only Path To Becoming Rich

Plenty of Americans are choosing not to attend colleges or universities today. And for good reason. From information technology to construction, many jobs offer good hours, pay and professional fulfilment and don't require a degree - here is the ultimate guide to this employment trend. With so much emphasis put on why college degrees are important for getting a leg up on your career, this book explores the benefits of NOT getting a degree. Readers learn the benefits of starting their career earlier and thus advancing further faster, gaining time to switch careers later if necessary and jumpstarting career earnings potential. Examples are given of people who skipped college right out of high school, launched careers and were able to accelerate their earnings potential.
