Spent the better part of a decade paying off college debts early along with mortgage
Meanwhile my boyo went tradie route & was clearing 6 figures net before I even got out of college..
He asked me to join him & looking back I probably should have
Lol @ tradies
Especially Lol @ white collar "work" that benefits no one; if your job can be done from home it isn't a job

Owning even a small construction company in the right field can make millions. There's a massive demand for labor and a shortage of it so you can almost charge whatever you want.

Ok ****gits. I'm a tradie (lineman) I have been making 300k since I was 26. Most I ever made was 350 dead srs. But I spent my life at work.
Average trades make under 100k a year, unless you got a union job with a good contractor and loads of ot
Having your company you pretty much work as a 1 man show or deal with a bunch of lazy drunks, any good tradie tries to start a company. It's not as easy as they say

I can't think of anything that would make me want to suck start a shotgun more than sitting at a desk from 8-5 daily listening to dames drone on about their husbands and kids...watching fat fuks walk to the breakroom 13 times a day scrounging for donuts and coffee cakes. Fuking LMAO at officels.
