I don't know man, it was getting to where I was having to sit in front of the computer for 10 hours a day. That's not healthy at all past a certain age.
well im a walker/bike type that uses a standing desk and I don't think I go 30mins without walking over and filling my water or using the bathroom. That being said the loss of the retire at 55 thing will kill us all.
And you think hauling buckets of asphalt into a roof is healthy at any age? Having being knee deep in literal human shit? Carrying around 2x4 and 50lb plywood sheathing?
My wife has tons of medical issues. That would not work for me but honestly you need a certain mindset for that I just don't have. Most businesses actually grow out of people doing what you are now.
Same. Left corporate middle management with a healthy salary to work a trade and I am very satisfied with my decision. I sleep like a baby since I go to bed with a clear conscience every night.
