When I was growing up, everyone was told that if you went to college you'd be able to make a good living.
Then it was, "Oh actually, you need a STEM degree, then you're set for life. You didn't think your bullshit degree would count, did you? Lol, learn to code"
Now it's "Aktually, you should have gone to trade school and become a plumber. You didn't think that CS degree was going to do anything did you?"
And trade jobs still generally require investing in a work truck or van plus thousands of dollars in tools. Also hope you live somewhere with a garage to put all of that equipment.

You also better hope you don't get injured doing the manual labor required and become unable to work
