Define good pay and benefits.
A friend of mine installs, maintains and repairs air conditioners and heaters and he makes between $70 to $100k/year depending on how hard he feels like working-last year he took three months off because he just didn’t feel like working. His house, truck, tools are all paid off, he carries no credit cards and had plenty saved up to be able to sit around the house and take a couple trips.
My nephew is a certified BMW mechanic who makes over $70k a year. he has a master’s degree in Archaeology. He took no loans out to get it-he funded his college education by working fighting wildfires for the NPS/BLM/USFS, cataloging and preserving artifacts during the summer and as a bartender during the school year. He found out very soon after graduating that the chances of maintaining steady employment and income as an Archeologist is problematic (even those with PhD’s can’t find steady work in the field) so he went back to school and learned how to be an automobile and motorcycle mechanic.
