You can probably only stick to basic chit

You def. Can't do electrical. Unless you knew a master that could supervise you or something

Cause you have to have a masters to be able to pull permits from your municipality to be able to do work. Which also requires putting up money for insurance

You'd be looking at prob 10 years plus of experience, learning theory on your own and putting up $$ for insurance unless you do an apprenticeship which is 4-5 years
That would be to Journeyman and then it's usually an additional 2 more to take the masters test

My guess is legit hvac and plumbing is the same

But you could do like basic handyman chit. Maybe fix some outside stuff. Paint, put up a TV, maybe some flooring chit

8 year olds already have their side hustles going strong while you sit here and ask an internet forum of gay Indians. My apologies to the 8 year olds out there grinding.

I know a retired military guy that started a lawn mowing business on a whim. He had so many people calling him, he couldn't take all the work. Most people were willing to pay whatever price he threw out.

I'm white collar, but also strong and used to have a pickup. I paid off my house moving stuff with my truck after work. Amazing how weak people are and how much an actual moving company would charge.
Don't put that on me Ricky Bobby, don't you ever put that on me.

I have a 25 ton county line. I typically just use the splitter to split the rounds in half and then a maul to get them smaller. It’s faster and great exercise. Would love to try one of those kinetic flywheel splitters but I don’t really need one

Edit 25 not 27
