Hmm. I definitely suggest finishing your GED. But other than that, you might want to check out these links:

The Bureau of Labor Statistics' Occupational Outlook Handbook:

Painters: http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos240.htm (I don't know if you mean regular painting, or art painting?)

Cooks: http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos161.htm

I suggest reading the part about "Training, Other Qualifications, and Advancement" in each link.

Personally, you may be interested in working in the general trades (plumbing, car repair, construction, etc.). They pay very well and do not usually require you to go through years and years of college.
