sail etc repairs.
If you are near a coast or a large lake with lots of boaters sails AND boat upholstery should be good!
I was married at 23, already an established work-a-holic, making good money in an oil refinery. I had 2 kids, and was saving/investing the entire time. At 29, my wife had some affairs, and beta me moved her back to her home state to solve our marital problems. After the divorce, I had all of my investments (properties that I was snowballing the income to purchase more. I was buying one rental a year) and full custody of my sons. I was 30 years old. How did I spend the next 15 years.............
From 30 to 40 I trained MMA, bounced at a night club, continued to snowball my income for more properties, and played WoW. From 40 to 45, I trained MMA, bounced at a night club, continued to snowball my income, and smoked weed. (First time I ever touched it, I was 40.
After 2 weeks to flatten the curve, 30% of tenants stopped paying rent. After Trump failed re-election, I liquidated with the belief that nothing would get better, and inflation will eat any profit from rents, as repair costs grow. I took the money, and 'prepped'.
Today, I can't train MMA because hospitals won't see me for non life threatening injuries, (no vax) and I can't work a nightclub for the same reasons. Though I can eat for years, have no debt, sturdy car, as well as everything else I'll need for at least 5 years, I have no skills that are valuable for todays climate. I don't have any skills that allow me to work under the table for any meaningful wage. I'm basically grunt labor.
Young men of today... invest in yourself. Choose a passionate hobby, and a practical one. Humble yourself, and never, NEVER think your situation won't change. Plan on it.
This isn't a sob story, as I'm not needing for anything..... at this moment.. but without a skill set, were I to just sit here and let this stay a fact, I'd be fucked. As it is, I'm now competing with a younger, more knowledgeable work force just to get a toe in a door that will lead to anything meaningful.
