lots of non-profits make lots of money :-p, but that's only for the weak of morals. really what you should do is find out what interests you can develop which are in high demand or just incredibly rare. jobs at non-profits can make money, but it'll always be less money than you'd get in the private sector.

you don't have to go "work for someone" to make money in the world. although much riskier, it also can be much more rewarding to work for yourself and to sell your own products or ideas or skills to people. that way you can always be making progress rather than getting stuck in a dead end job somewhere or just "subsisting".
