Take my son’s bike to get fixed. A tree hit him. Anyway. Not the point. 

Guy working the shop. Looks like a blond hair trey anastasio. Maybe 55. Listening to dead. 

1st thought is. Wonder how this guy affords life. -> 

Quickly thinks of all the bikers I see on the road. 

2nd thought. Bet this guy just LoLs and Lifegains all day. AND makes good money. 

(Had a friend who ran a pool opening and closing buisiness… and I as making nearly 6 figs… now he’s a house husband )

Point here is the general story of the not smart widget producer. The plumber. The hvac guy (Barry) who just replaced my furnace. 

Great jobs. Good to great pay. 

But hey. Chase that paper. It’s what they told you to do. 

(Professional paper chaser here btw)
