Can I get a decent paying IT/Computer Technician job with just a certification(s)?



I really hate school. I don't have the patience or money for college, so I just want to get A+, Security+, and/Or Network+ Certified. I was wondering if I could still get a decent paying job with those certifications, as an IT/Computer Technician. If so, what kind of companies should I head to for employment?

You may want to consider the CISSP certification. As an IT professional experience goes a long way when I am hiring someone.

We all had to pay dues.. I started working in the field 18 years ago at around 20k. I changed jobs nearly every two years as I gained experience. Truthfully Cisco and Microslop certificated people are a dime a dozen.. Opt for the security.
You should be able to get a job, but define decent pay. Though the certifications will help, you will likely just get a techie job for some traveling consulting computer company, and will never make the money that a true degreed technician or computer analyst will make.
