Question
I have finally decided to get my education and want to take classes online. I am in the military and school is covered by the USAF. I wanted a list of jobs that can pay over 100k a year and require a 4 year degree. But I wanted jobs that will be in demand for years and year to come. Jobs that I wont have to worry about being worthless in a few decades. Thanks.

Answer
Jeremy,

If I had the answer to this question definitively, then I would be a rich person.  I don't think there are any jobs that are simply going to pay you $100K right out of college.  I think this is an unrealistic goal and instead you should look into career opportunities that you LOVE to do.  If you love what you do, then the $$$ will come.

I am sorry that I cannot be of more assistance, but I think the question is pretty unrealistic at this point of just having a 4-year degree and given this economy.

There are several fields that have longevity appeal.  Some of them are sales, health care, and the financial services sector.  You might want to check out these areas in  your own personal google search and start the research for your DREAM JOB!

Claiming nothing but success in all of your career endeavors,
