    No it isn’t. Go work a trade job like being an electrician. Start early enough and put it in a 401k and other such investments and you will retire a millionaire.

        Most jobs give you the training, most jobs aren’t that physical, and you get paid to learn and work. None of those are obstacles at all, you’re just ignorant.

          I don’t know where you are but they don’t do that in my southern state. Maybe you’re just privileged.

            The USA really is a shit hole, most countries have government trade programs. The USA does, but they allow the states to just do what they want regardless, so it’s useless.

            And even in those southern states, the companies pay for the training. You really have no clue about how trades work do you?

            Just Google your state, a random trade, and you can learn a whole hell of a lot your ignorant about I guess, but also look federal too.

            And most trades just need a high school diploma to apply, you’re seriously not suggesting that’s an obstacle are you….?

                Than why are you saying those are obstacles? Anyone who would look up how to apply for a trade would see that’s bullshit lmfao. Education? High school diploma. Physical? There’s tools and there people doing trades in a fucking wheelchair. Finances? Trades pay well and you don’t have debt from schooling, AND they pay for your schooling going forward.

                That’s ignorance, your clearly haven’t looked anything up, and now you’re gonna claim you have?

                What about working for a job in your state makes any of those 3 claims of yours obstacles? I thought I explained pretty well why your 3 specific claims aren’t.

        Educational: if you have a phone, you have access to almost all of human knowledge, largely for free.

        Physical: I’ve seen people without legs do things people with able bodies won’t or can’t do.

        Finances: I’ve seen single mothers work three jobs to put food on the table while going to school for nursing at the same time

        If you truly have the will, there is always a way. I’m not saying it’s easy, but you absolutely can.
