    Idk plumbers, electricians, contractors, etc make a lot around here. I’m sure they usually have business overhead that factors into their hourly rates (like $100+ an hour here in Seattle). Or if they work independently, they’d still need to pay taxes, insurance, health insurance, licensing, etc., but assuming they make $60/hr after all that, that’s pretty good.

      I’m a contractor. I work in hospitals where it rains money. They charge $120 an hour for my services. By the time all the hands get in the pot, I get very close to $100 less per hour.
