Work as a laborer for a general construction contractor, preferably a big company that eats a lot of workers and has big projects (apartment buildings, warehouses, business renovations, stuff like that), be friendly. Talk to all the tradies that come through, find one that's looking for help.

Work a trade for a while. Do side work. Work weekends, evenings, do favors for the various people you run into. Do residential new construction/remodels/other small projects on the cheap, get your foot in the door.

After a few years, open the side work up into full time work. Use your newfound skills and abilities to start your own business doing whatever trade you do.

Once your business takes off, hire more people, train them, equip them, let them take care of the heavy lifting. Spend all day doing paperwork and bidding jobs.

Retire and let the company take care of itself. Retain ownership and keep some profits to live on in your old age.

That's the basic "american dream" formula. Or you can be a code monkey/pharmacist/welder/oil field worker and make 6 figures easy with no degree or real work experience if you like to listen to that kind of crap.
