Married / Re: Plumber earnings
« Last post by Trenchcoat on Yesterday at 09:37:55 PM »
Just remembered that one of my nieces and her husband own a plumbing business in Ohio, so I checked with her regarding salaries, etc.

Recently they started paying new workers $18 an hour, those with 3 years  experience $28 dollars an hour and master plumbers $40 an hour.

They usually send out 2 men on each job and bill at $200 per hour total.

Don't know what they earn from the business (which they were lucky to have inherited from his father) but . . .

Aside from 4 business trucks, he buys a new monster truck every 2-3 years, she buys a new SUV every 2-3 years and they bought a couple of years ago a high end Mustang.  They also have large boat and large travel trailer and very nice house.

He goes on fishing trips to Florida and hunting trips to the north every year.
She travel almost every other month to distant states to visit relatives.

They have adult children who do not work in the business; don't know exactly why.

Owning the business and not lying around in some awkward position doing the actual plumbing work is no doubt a better position to be in. Aside from taxes and costs I would guess that they are making more money then those they employ per hour.

It all varies, my guess is that it is probably easier to make money in plumbing in the US than it is the UK. Partly due to less competition coming forth than you would be set against and partly as 2tallbill allured to that the tax regime/society is different. At its worst here a lot of local council's are going near bankrupt and are having to have the government bail them out. The reason? Money has been provided over the past 20-30 for the Social Housing crowd to be housed for free and have many kids on benefit on what could be an unlimited number of kids. Now the government only pays child benefit on the first two children a couple have. It's really the housing that counts though, if you have children, particularly if a single mother you go to the top of the housing ladder for free social housing (unless you work then you will pay for your social housing but it's still cheaper than the going rate by up to a third but it's why many of the social crowd don't work). So it all means the social housing crowd has been expanding in the UK exponentially. The kids produced all expect the same mostly, to live if the state and so the Councils financial on the social housing it provides burden grows &
grows.

There's also another issue to it all which is that genetically those in social housing tend to be the worst. Sometimes there are good news stories of someone who has made it good but mostly they are fucked up from the get go by just having a poor accumulation of not particularly helpful genes. Add to that bad to non existent upbringing from parents and often drug problems and the country gets burdened down by a whole load of useless people that would possibly only ever be any good in a forced labour camp.

So paying for all that costs a lot both at local and national government level. That of course means that everyone else has to pay, way, way more tax so surpressing take home pay after tax.

"The last thing I needed was to be belittled here, especially in a time of stress and confusion."

y'know, you seem a bit "unsure" and "insecure"
i'm wondering what other surprises are gonna be in store for ya...

Thanks to "most" of you for your replies and advice.  Sheesh.  The last thing I needed was to be belittled here, especially in a time of stress and confusion.

I did NOT know that Poland stopped issuing Schengen visas to Russian citizens.


Note: This idea is not guaranteed to work #1
I got a Schengen visa for my Russian wife and daughter to Spain while sitting in Russia.
My then fiancée (now wife) did all the work with a Russian travel agent. They still had
real living travel agents back then.

The Russian travel agent (If they still exist) will know if it's possible or not. I had to send
my Angel Eyes money to deposit into her account so that she would appear to have enough
money to go site seeing in Spain. I don't remember how much it was (it was thousands)

Note: This idea is not guaranteed to work #2
Scroll down the link to find 19 countries that issue eVisas for Russian passport holders.
Check to see if you can work though one of them.

I wish I could be that young again...
asian women REALLY made me paranoid when I was 18/19, I didn't trust ANY of em
other dewds I served with had concubines, these were some greedy HO's and  not somethin I ever wanted, I could do my own laundry thank you

later, I met professional women in Shanghai when I was older, and had a completely different experience with asian women
a lotta Chinese women have a "white boy" fetish
THEY will come to you!!!!
especially the taller ones, what the Chinese call "Northerners"
they have this amazing white soft skin

A lot of those headline averages aren't born out by the salaries on the site. Beneath one is a vacancy for £40-45k but odds are once you are in it, it will depend on how much work the hand for you as and when - UK Employers are like that, you only find out the whole deal once you go for interview/in the job. The often wang a little and the deal often isn't as good as the headline offering. It's not always out but the more lucrative looking the job the more likely it will be.

Can anyone translate word salad to English?

How much work the hand = Me hand love you a long time?
The often wang a little = The Asian guy is not as well endowed?

just amazed with the OP, the Polish situation is about a yr old...
even the woman herself shoulda been able to contact a visa facilitator IN RUSSIA and get a Hungarian Schengen visa and do so pretty easily, it just costs a few hundred USD
no clue how someone like the OP is gonna deal with the Russian money/credit card issues and 1,000 others...

hello SIR, my real name is Jie Yu, Krimster2 is just my TROLL name, I am known as "The Mad Carriage Greeter,”
y'know, if you put your money in your head, no one can EVER take it from you!
have a nice carriage ride SIR!!!!

young people all wanna be "Urban Professionals" and not do manual labor
and that's why you make more cleanin Septic Tanks than in some accounting job
follow the money - people always gotta have workin septic tanks - you just be ready when they don't
knowin how to fix people's shitty problems is ALWAYS a way to make money
you let the Septic Tank ENTROPY work for you (septic tanks tend towards getting plugged with sheet) this ensures a continuous need for your services
your businesses MOTTO: NO SHIT!! WE'RE THE BEST!!!
