Sounds like you just failed to move up in the trades and open your own business...
It's easier than most think.
I've progressed up my trade as far as I can and I'm in one of, if not the highest paying ones out there. I can ask for more money but still that leaves me fairly stagnant. The next option I have would be to open up a business which is quite difficult for this trade especially if I want to be apart of the labor union. If I want to make more money I have to work more hours plain and simple.
It's not that hard to open your own business as a tradesmen. I'm pretty handy, but there are some things I dont want to do because I'm busy. When I contract out work its gotten to the point where if a contractor actually shows up the work's theirs no matter the price.
Can you imagine any other field with that low a bar to starting a succesful business? Just showing up and bam, you're in the top 20% of companies?
