I’m not working as a carpenter anymore. But there are many different areas in carpentry framing, finishing, millwork. But I know there is a lot of money to be made. What I have seen as a life lesson, is if you are really good at what you do, you will make an awesome living doing whatever you pick. I know tow truck drivers that are well into six figures, yes they now own there own trucks, and I know carpenters that are also six figures and very happy. Will you make this kind of money right out of the box? NO, but if you are good at what you do it will happen.
