If your economy isn't advanced enough to have a dynamic job market for your profession then it might make sense to switch to a profession or trade where there is more demand.

If you are decently high IQ you can build a good business in trades and its probably easier to get rich that way than trying to get rich by doing something requiring a more developed economy.

I'm an architect and while I'm doing fine some times I think about doing some course about brick laying or carpentry or some shit like that, can't be that hard specially if you already have the theoric background. Building shit with your own hands is neat. Building the shit you have yourself would be kino as fuck. I wish I could build my own home with my hands myself.

He doesn't deserve it.
Those bricks should alternate at the center, he's making only a slight margin.

they are making like +200-300dlls at week here which is double/triple minimum wage and average age is like 45yo
which also means that salaries will rise even more
unless our governments starts importing venezuelans and colombians or the new generations decides to return to the trades because AI
these are good times to be a low iq tradie

its a first world thing to pay blue collar as well or maybe even better than white collar. everyone wants to chill at a comfy wfh job so no need to pay them much, no one wants to do construction in freezing storms so you have to pay them a lot. its that simple.

It's an overqualification thing. Maybe the Philippines didn't hit the overqualification ceiling yet

overqualification is a negative in blue collar work, people know that the higher educated will always look for a job relevant to their education so they dont really want to hire them for lower jobs unless in desperation. who knows if they get that job offer next week or next year, then you have trained then, bought then tools and a van for nothing.

its actually practically very possible but it is forbidden by law, at least in croatia, for a person to build a home. it has to be a registered company.
