[QUOTE="atatbl, post: 1301961, member: 12890"] I sure as hell hope it does too! However, being an adult that cares about my kids, you can bet my back-up plan will keep us well above water if I need to use it. Physical work is, in some ways, a lottery. Anyone who believes themselves to be invincible is very foolish. Always be ready and qualified to switch a non-physical job if the need arises. Do it for your kids, or wife or husband or yourself or whoever. Just don't think $70,000+/year is somehow guaranteed when you may not be able to do the job tomorrow. And anyone who says they "can't afford to go to school" or they "don't have the time" should look up what some single parents have accomplished in schooling. I can't even imagine how they do it, but I'm relatively sure that making excuses is not part of their process. None of that was directed at you, OPTION3, in particular. But you brought up an [B]excellent[/B] point. [/QUOTE]
