Reasons To Build A Career Fixing Broken Stuff 

It's not just the money, it's the satisfaction of seeing problems solved.
Changing careers is something that is intimidating, and not something to rush into, but while it's intimidating it's also worth a lot, the experience, the knowledge, it's certainly not for everyone but it's for more people than you might think.
Schools in this country have taught for too long that the only way to be successful is college, and that's quite simply not true.
A shop owner I recently spoke to was telling me that last year out of his shop of 8 techs, 3 of them made over $90k last year, and that's not working a single weekend.
So once you build the skillset, and the tool set, the sky is the limit.
