There have been two threads about this on this board over the last 3 weeks or so that put the lie to this notion. According to those who are in these fields, unless you're the owner of the business or working your arse off with ot, you're not cracking 6 figures.


This, and unless you own your own business, trades would be back-breaking work into your 50s and 60s. Maybe even late 40s for some.

No. If you're 45 and still plumbing a toilet, you've failed. The entire way you make money is running your own trucks. I'd flush my degree down the toilet in exchange for the trades. I ran cable pre-drywall, and it's not that bad, even in Louisiana.

If someone would have told me that about plumbing, electrical or HVAC, I never would have bothered with a BS.

The point isn't to pull cable or snake drains, it is to run trucks of people 20 years younger than you that can pull cable and snake drains.
