Get into the trades, its not cool to be a plumber or electrican, but work abounds. I'm in the Air Conditioning bizz. I'm not paid alot, but I can go to any town and find employment.

You are joking right? Most of the trades require extensive hands on training and years of work experience, before you qualify for any kind of license. That is fine if 18, but it is a no go for adults. BTW, housing starts are on their way down, contractor insurance rates are on their way up, and the market isn't quite as hot and dandy as you paint it. Just because someone with decades of experience can find a living, doesn't mean that the market is open to career changers.
