What are some non-sales jobs that start at 40k in NJ without a college degree?

Private teaching. Both my wife and I teach privately. Groups or one-on -one basis.

Question to Donald Trump on leverage --- What would you rather have? 10% of effort from one thousand people, or 110% of your own effort?

PS
My wife and I, we have two children (Grade 1 and 2).They'd never seen us going to work. We take them to shool and we are home when they come back. They never heard from us that we can't afford this or that. Reason? We quit our jobs (Just Over Broke) and developed our income from Home Based Positions. Try it --- guaranteed you'll like it.

you're dreaming. You need a college to get anywhere close to $40K.

I dont have a college degree (which I regret), have been working for 20 years, and am still not getting $30K.

I am a barber in the DC area and my annual income is @ $50,000.
I attended barber college--10 months duration. Sat for the exam--both practical and written, passed with flying colors and have been barbering ever since (for 12+ yrs).
I make roughly $1000/wk. Some weeks are minuses, others are pluses from that base of $1000. You live with it. It's a risk. I am a sub-contractor. I work on straight commission, have my client-base and am known for my precision. I cut men's hair, mostly, but will cut the occasional simple women's cuts, as well.
I am on my feet approximately 50 to 60 hrs/wk, but I exercise to maintain stamina.
I am also in college--marketing major. I feel that I've arrived at a crossroads and desire something a little more intellectually challenging. I am a wonderful people person and the barbering catapulted that skill--as well as the skill of communication.
Not EVERY trade/profession requires a bachelor's, but you need to be mindful of the competition with regards to what you can bring to the table for a company looking to fill the slot with an ideal candidate. Will it be yourself, the high school graduate? Or will it be Joe Putterstuff with the State U. BS diploma? You decide...
Hope this helps.

Peace...
