Im a welder. But I don't work for anyone. Im just good at welding which comes in handy for your business ventures. (I'm not saying what I do specifically). I am a trained welder and when I did that I was doing easy 150k a year after expenses. It's expensive to get started depending on what you do. Working for other people is usually stupid

Rich tradies destroyed australia because they are politically ignorant so all the leftists were able to coalesce with nobody with any power to oppose them and now they dominate everything.

Still comfy, no roasties, no zog brainwashing.

No shlomo looking over my shoulder at work.
Work is based on compeence so it won§t be flood by niggers and women. That is the magic behind higher income.

I work as an American welder and make 500k a year. Without us your world would fall apart. That bridge you drive over its held up by other welders like me. That fucking car you drive is held together by my fellow union welding brothers.
I work in the medical gas sector. We weld and prefab all the working gas fittings for hospitals. Without guys like me your surgerys that you pay to go get in the hospital wouldn't happen. I Might even save your life one day because of one of my welds.
You want to know the best part about being a welder though? At the end of the day I can actually hold my hard earned cash in my hands. That's right I can count it and feel it. Unlike these scammy crypto coins that have absolutely no use case and will go no where but zero.
So why don't you do yourself a favour. Put down the laptop and pick up the torch. Ignite the spark to your financial freedom.

I'm a union pipefitter/welder and I make decent pay - $100K more or less for a 2000hr year. Not welding right now but if I want to I can drag up and go to an oil refinery, steel mill, or power plant that is starving for welders.
