I've always known that I'd end up in Japan for a while, if not forever, but, I've always been unsure of making the leap. The teaching programs, (JET,etc.) always seemed to be a viable solution, but due to monetary constraints and family dilemma, i was unable to finish college, thus, ruling out what i would consider the "easy" way that is teaching.

What other avenues should i explore?
I can read/write/speak Japanese on an intermediate level, but what sorts of jobs, aside from manual labor/factory work will i be able to realistically obtain?
