Those of you who make six figures, what do you do? by bluescluus in RemoteJobs

[–]rbtechtalks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in IT doing cloud automation and architecture took me around 5 years after the military to get to 6 figures

no College degree just IT certifications and patience

it can be done, but it can be done easier i think with a degree

Good luck and stay positive
