There are plenty of skilled trade jobs that pay as well or better than a number of undergraduate degrees. Electrician, aviation techs, construction managers, plumbers, radiology tech, LPN, and dental hygienists are all jobs that pay as well or better than some of the lower paying bachelor's degree careers. So that would be your history, english, biology, psychology degrees, etc. Here's a chart of salaries by 4 year degree:
