Truck drivers make really good money, but some may require you to get your own rig.

There's plenty you can do without college. You can do some form of trade school and make good money without college as well.

Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is the literal definition of insanity. Get a degree.
Your schtick sucks and it screams insecurity.

Non destructive testing. My NDT tenants spend about 2 hours a day climbing ladders and stairs to take x-rays. They spend the other 6 hours in air conditioning. Per diem is $125/day on top of hourly wage.

IT is king. It offers some of the highest wages, the most flexibility and the cushiest jobs and you can land role in any of them without a 4 year degree.

Just find a subject thats interesting. Spend a couple months learning about it, build a portfolio on github, and bam 6-8 months from now you're raking in 6 figures.

yep.

there are 2,3,4,5hour long classes on youtube for virtually all the coding and programming languages. The vast majority of places looking for coders/programmers don't care about certifications they want to see if you can do the work

couple more things. Dont be afraid of all the news stories about tech layoffs. those are largely happening at "meme"/FAANG companies (twitter/google/instagram/pintrest/Meta etc)

Theres more to the world of IT than social media websites. Healthcare/biotech/finances/insurance agencies/investment firms are all looking for individuals with skills in data manipulation or the ability to code for website optimization.

Also, if you look at the requirements for the majority of these jobs, you'll see that almost all of them ask for a 4 year degree....ignore it. Go on linkedin, contact the hiring manager directly, present to them your portfolio (that you will have been building) and see how quickly they'll give you an interview offer.

and finally, when you DO get to this point and you think the interview questions are hard, just realize that the job itself is always much MUCH easier.

Do you have any interests? Industries you're into? Tons of niche work out there that pays well for anyone willing to do it.
