What are some lucrative trades you can teach yourself and go practice without school credits or apprenticeships? I don't care if I have to take to prove I'm competent to obtain a license. I'm not paying for tuition tho and/or hoping that I'm the 1/1000 person that gets chosen for an apprenticeship spot.

Depends on where you live. Here in Serbia you can build houses from the ground up without a license. Most brickies I know don't even have high school completed, they learned in like a month on the jobsite. The ones most likely to not have any formal education are blocklayers, plasterers (includes drywall guys and suspended ceiling guys who might be the highest earning trade rn by far here, they charge so much that it's actually disturbing), facade/insulation guys, window fitters, foundation crews (this one is obvious), parquet layers. Tilers sometimes have a formal three year trade education, sometimes they don't. Exterior pavers are another bunch of gypsy retards with four years of schooling at most, you could look into that, but if you're American I doubt that will pay very well because landscaping is swarming with Latinos there and it gets exponentially worse every year.

I should clarify that by "four years of schooling" I meant in total. Primary school level.

virtually all of them. there is no requirement that you go to school or become an apprentice in order to get your license. being an apprentice can speed the process up a little, but school doesn't help you at all. trade school is a meme for suckers, similar to college degrees in art history or whatever

you can work any trade and learn on the job and sell yourself as a professional and work side jobs making bank without a license if you work for clients who dont care or don't ask.
you can do anything you want if you dont care.
