Ask HN: What other good careers exist for those without a college education?
34 by EduardoBautista | 17 comments on Hacker News.
So I never graduated from college but have been working on web apps (Ruby on Rails and Ember are what I mostly work on) since I was 19 (I am 25 now). I always wondered what I would do if for some reason the market for software developers would go down. I worry I would not able to find an interesting job, let alone a lucrative one. Is tech the best path out there for interesting and/or well paid work without a college education?
