[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Plumbers and electrons are making about 300/hr around here so I think there is a good living to be had in the trades. It's getting worse every day - you cant find anyone.[/quote] My brother is in HVAC and got his master's apprenticeship, so he makes good money. But, it is very hard on your body. He is 45 and is tired and struggling to keep up. [/quote] I believe it. The trades are hard on the body, particularly as a person ages. Now folks will chime in about how everyone moves to management or opens their own, wildly successful, business as they get older & more experienced. This is true in some cases and far from true for most. The skill set required for entrepreneurship is much different than being a productive worker & most do not have it.[/quote]
