Get in the electrical trade iam a retired electrician the pension is great
 
I had a very successful house/commercial painter tell me that you can only make so much money with your hands. If you want to be really wealthy, you gotta use your money and invest. He has several rental properties. Good friend of mine did just that too. He works for a lumber yard and is a multi-millionaire.

That will make you money but it come at a high price. Interest, property taxes, maintenance, repairs from asshole tenets, dealing with asshole tenets. And once their in there it’s a real hassle to get them out, here in Winnipeg anyway. Then there’s capital gains tax when you sell. There’s definitely more to it than just buying and renting. Did it for a couple of years don’t want the bullshit that comes with it. Better off to work for Manitoba Hydro for 30 years and collect a big fat pension check. Less hassle evenings and weekends free payed holidays benefits. Good gig if you can get it.
 
Rental properties does not come without its hardships. Getting a good tenant is like winning the lottery. Here in Ontario, the tenants have all the rights unfortunately (and fortunately) depending on how you see it. There are people that will use the laws to their advantage. But, like everything..it wouldn't be call work if it were all sunshine and rose's

yes..that was the other option I had suggested to him. The common person has no idea nor do they want to mess with something that can potentially kill them. :)

It’s the same here in the states
 
Been a body man all my life and a truck driver. Can't say it was a good choice of jobs but been retired now for about 6 years and doing some side work to help out. I'm a happy camper even if the economy and government suck.
