1. My background is welding but I branched out and learned more trade skills. I make $45 an hour with pretty much unlimited overtime. I know I’m far above average in pay. I was making $50k for a couple years. That’s pretty normal for average welders doing shop and fab work.
Unless you are willing to endanger your life or be moving around constantly with no job security you probably won’t be making 100k a year.
Let’s talk about this pathetic little excuse that so many people use to justify their lack of success and achievement in life:
“I don’t have enough time.”
Oh really? You don’t have enough time?
There’s an irritating little paradox buried in how life works: the more consistently you choose to do the difficult, uncomfortable, and inconvenient things, the easier your life becomes over time. Meanwhile, if you chase comfort, avoidance, and instant gratification, your life eventually turns into a tangled mess of stress, regret, and consequences that are far harder than anything you could have faced earlier.
People hate this truth because it exposes just how much of our suffering is self-inflicted.

It’s guaranteed at this point that no matter what kind of satirical take on the United States or the world comes out, there are going to be people who misunderstand and misconstrue it.
