To me it seems the harder people work in our economy the less you are compensated. You have to work "smart" vs. hard.
ding ding ding....we have a winner
smarter vs harder has been working for a lot of years
my pop worked 3x harder physically than i have ever worked
he earned every nickel the "hard" way
he and my grandpa made sure that us kids knew that wasnt the "preferred" method of making a living anymore
he told us there were better and easier ways than breaking your backs everyday
they both stressed education, but more important than the sheepskin or the diploma, he said was the skillset
make sure you learn to make yourself valuable in MANY ways they told us
same thing i have taught my kids now
and be willing to adapt....because things will change
