Do you feel discouraged with income and the economy?

People have told me that whatever income level or class your parents were in that’s typically what you’ll be in. But I kinda feel like I’m falling down a class and income level. I feel like no jobs pay enough. They’re all so close to minimum wage and feel unlivable. Especially if you want to live in a house.

That simply isn't true anymore. If you want a better income, you'll have to train for it, and you'll have to establish a record of working VERY hard, for lots of hours. If you can do that, you WILL move up a bit in the world and earn a better wage...perhaps even a salary. Don't forget that training in a field like electrician, and plumbing, can eventually bring in up to $150 K per year.
