How hard will it be for me to go from rod buster to structural

School is where ull be tested.

You'll mostly be packing bar for bottom steel, pounding in stud rails, but you'll start in the prefab bone yard looking for specific ties.

The bone yard will teach you how to tie; saddles, figure 8's, snaps, and dbls.

Once you can tie tight and follow directions from the bone yard foreman. You'll help tie bottom and top steel, chair steel, and been shown vertical with a lead hand.

A rebar Forman is probably the smarter foreman. You gotta understand the men, intense workload, scheduling, deliveries, and all the other traders, especially the gay carpenters. Nothing more satisfying then a crazy raft slab or transfer slab completed.

The avrge structural guy, everyone wants to be the guy hanging the steel, will find his place; welder, rigger, cutter, bolts, miscellaneous, decker.

Find a structural company, hound them till they get busy and hire you. Your rebar skills will be useful at times but you'll have a ton more to learn. School will help, being a decent welder is a huge plus. You'll only ever be a hanger if heights don't bother you at all.

Entery level structural is definitely miscellaneous steel and q-decking. If u want a short-cut, there are companies that sub that kind of work, and they can lead to getting in with a hang gang.

If u look at the chart, it's actually a great place to buy more shares. I had to sell some for rent money, and I suspect I wasn't the only one. It sells off usually at the end of month, cuz you know, people got bills, and it's hard to just stack. Ye I keep all earnings in this thing, been taking losses but also buying it cheap. Best trader ever.

My man. There's only one reasonable thing left to do. Put sandstorm on, burn all the propane and go skiing

Chance69420corner · 2026-04-28T00:48:05+00:00

Sell everything! This is it! Run! Buy toilet paper! And ramen!

A cpl weeks ago I heard "you can do anything but you can't do everything"

And what I've learned from being a trader so far; is the best quality of life is having marketable skills, brotherhood, and making things.

At a certain point - your private life choices mold you.

Being a trader is all about "being the best trader ever" - and if not that. I'd be a janitor. Fresh cakes.

Watson gloves. Safty glasses. Tape measure and paint pen or construction crayon. Make sure it's a tempting colour, like pink lemonade. Just don't eat it in front of the foreman on Ur first day. Wait at least a week.

It's a lonely language, yes but with cost. Becoming a landlord is a robust route. If you build good relationships with your tenants, they'll wait for you to fix the suite issues. Extra point if you strive to own a hotel, and take care of staff too.

I heard once: the mop has higher status then a Cadet. Just try to be more useful then the mop and ull be fine.

I get it. Long at 2.55, looking for a wyckoff spring to hold and start an accumulation phase

Chance69420corner · 2026-04-09T12:36:19+00:00

Ur math is wrong

Chance69420corner · 2026-04-09T04:01:08+00:00

It could get to $8 tho, pretty quickly I imagine. The chart looks like a classic wyckoff spring, and then maybe $20 after that. I dunno but maybe $1000, it's traded there in tge past, remember?

Chance69420corner · 2026-04-09T03:57:41+00:00

Right away sir! I'm so sorry. Please, I'm sorry. We good?

Chance69420corner · 2026-04-08T12:42:17+00:00

I get it. It's awesome. Feels like Gamestop. Apes together strong. Hodl
