He went to school for two years then joined an apprentice program.
My uncle took a one year course to work with hydraulics. He could have worked 50 hours overtime evey week if he wanted it. He was able to retire at 53. He barely got thru high school, but found a trade that was quick to study, and paid amazing, with high demand.
