Oh, I'll add this... I grew up in my father's construction supply company. In the hardware store one day it was pretty busy. Dad pulled me aside from what I was doing and said, "Son, look around the store and tell me who you think is the richest man here".... I don't know... I said, what about that man in the suit? Dad said, nope, see that man there with the dirt and mud over his clothes? He's a plumber. He makes over $250,000 a year.


Oh, also, nursing... and in nursing homes... high turnover but a great way to get paid while doing some really good work for other people.

Here in central Texas and now other locations, there is Schlitterbahn... they are always hiring young people for the summer. Fun job, make lots of friends, and be around the hottest looking babes. :)
