[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m going to take an unpopular view here.  But bear with me.  I’ve been around a lot of the trades and while you may find yourself attracted to a specific person, it’s the entire lifestyle and their buddies that might be a problem.  Construction and the trades tend to be a respectable way for people with a troubled background to make a living.  Nothing wrong with that.  But are you going to want to socialize with the plumber’s friends, their families, plumber’s family?  It’s a different world if you’re used to a UMC background of white-collar educated people.

If the guy is rich he will live in a nice neighborhood and hang out with rich people just like other rich people. [/quote]

I live in a city that has many well-off trade and industrial workers. They have their big, expensive houses and toys but it is in a different style than the white collar UMC. There are pockets of blue-collar rich Neighborhoods and white collar rich neighborhoods. [b]They often have different values and different ideas of fun. [/b]

My husband got tired of his desk job. He wanted to go into a field that he found more interesting and paid well without student loan debt. He wanted a chance to make more money.  He loves his new job  but he is mostly surrounded by guys who love Trumps, trucks, their motorcycles, and speedboats. He feels like a fish out of water but doesn’t regret changing.

I don’t think it is derogatory to say there is generally a difference between the two groups because I’m certain they would tell you so themselves. [/quote]
