[quote=Anonymous]My plumber's house is nicer than mine (I'm a lawyer). His kids go to private school, and he has vacation homes at the beach, the mountains, and in Greece. My contractor/handyman similarly earns more than I do. He also flips houses and has vacation homes at the beach and on a lake. Neither had student loan debt. They learned a trade and started their own business. They also travel a lot and are probably better equipped for retirement than I am. When you work a trade, you can get paid in cash...and not necessarily claim everything for taxes. That's what I suspect they do. [/quote]
