Nurses make good money. I'd say a CNA, but the pay is not good and the work is very taxing and hard. I did that for 6 months and it killed my back lifting those patients up in the nursing home. I don't know what kinds of jobs pay $20, but healthcare is always a good route to go. What about a managerial job? If you have a masters, they might look at you. I'm not sure how much they pay, but places like restaurants are almost always looking for manager trainees and such. I'm not much help, but I thought I'd just throw those out there.
