Are there any good paying jobs that someone could get right out of high school?

My cousin needs to work to support himself after graduating high school and can’t afford college. I think trade school is an option but that requires more time. I am not sure if anything exists of that nature. I am thinking of maybe car sales as an option.

Does anyone have an idea of what jobs I should send his way?

Store manager took the words out of my mouth. Getting into the trades is a great idea. From what I remember, there are lots of apprenticeship opportunities that should in theory help your cousin get their foot in the door quickly.

Being a store manager and plumber both seem like good ideas. Both seem to take time and energy to reach. Very different jobs too

Tell him to apprentice for an electrician or plumber after a year and half he can get licenses
