Jon Alternative Media, Blogosphere, Economy, Education

The Great Recession destroyed the job market for workers without college degrees, and the situation hasn’t gotten any better.
This begs the question – can you still enjoy a high standard of living without a college degree? And what are the highest paying jobs for people without a traditional higher education?
This new chart, from HowMuch.net, sheds some light on these pressing questions.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics tracks which professions do not require a college education, how many people currently hold those jobs, and their median salaries. We combined this information into a scatter plot graph. The more dots you see, the more people work in that profession. And the higher the dots on the vertical axis, the more money they make.
