    What jobs are there in the private sector that pay at least 50 percent more than minimum wage, and are not too difficult to get into?

    specifically talking about jobs in the private sector, not employed by government (this would include teachers, local government, etc).

    Let's say around $15 an hour, at least.

    Asking this question because there are some who claim that the majority of jobs in the US do not pay much more than minimum wage.

    The problem you have with well,paying jobs is the employer is expecting the employee to actually work for the money, every day. My son has had a summer job since he was 16 that payed 15 a hour. He 8s working on grain handling systems. My nephew is living with me right now pouring concrete for 18 for his summer job.
