You want to find the wealthiest guy on the construction site? The ones with the 2000 acre deer ranch in Texas? The ones with the 60 foot sportfisher?

Find the Plumbing/HVAC or Electrical Sub. I can almost gurantee you the guy doesn't have more than a high school education too, but he sure as shite garners 40% of the capital construction cost.

also on days like today, when I'm just sitting here at this desk, wasting my life away, I really wish I would have taken the time to learn carpentry from my Dad.

He always tried to teach, but as a teenager, carpentry isn't cool or sexy, so I just never cared.

Now the idea of working in a shop, working with wood all day at my own pace and setting my own schedule sounds like a dream.

It's not all about the money.

I don't want to do physical labor or live the blue collar lifestyle.
