Same. I started this career with my only qualifications being that I knew linux computers reasonably well, and I was used to heavy machinery as I grew up on a farm. I have twice the salary of my friends with masters degrees.
Any sort of formal education in finance. i manage a quarter billion dollars.
High school diploma. I’ve only been specifically asked in one job interview in my entire 25 year career. I currently have employment income in the 94th percentile for a man of my age in my country (according to 2021 census data) - and no high school diploma.
Not the job I have, but the carrer: cooking
From experience, extroversion.
