For sure. Both my cousins are in the trades and both do pretty well for themselves. The good news for me is that when I'm done I should be able to roll into a nice, six-figure position. The bad news is the five years spent earning below the poverty line to get myself into that position

see and thats what I meant earlier...most people who took similar routes as me thought that they would spend 5 years in Uni, graduate and boom - high paying job to pay off those years of schooling. Wrong! - I worked throughout Uni to get my feet wet and because of it, Ive been with the same company for 7 years even though the first 5 were during schooling...so now I have experience and education and I have been promoted three times since graduating and have no school debt.

My friends who didnt work are sitting at home as we speak with tons of school debt waiting for their deadbeat job to start in a few hours. You always need to find ways to be ahead of others if you want better jobs/opps....thats why I took on the blogger role and became the president of my condo board about a year ago to further my skill sets....the career I want doesnt ask for stuff like this but you'd be crazy to think it wont put me ahead of other applicants with a similar degree

Absolutely. My wife started working at the end of her second year, plus did a 18 month internsip at school... by the time she graduated she has almost three years of relevant experience towards her P.Eng.

Beer is a dangerous subject, lest I get accused of being a hipster...
