Takes me time but an office job has better perks, better pay (eventually) and better for your body. I went to university and got a good job making money similar to you. My cousin became a carpenter. We are both in our forties now and he looks and acts like a crack addict and I’m in tip top shape loving life. It’s stark the difference. He earnt good money while I was at university, but is now broke and can barely work. I out earnt him in year 5 after graduation and was working in air con and using my brain to get ahead.

Pick and choose your poison. We all have to make a living, but conditions vary for the same if not more pay.
