That's an excellent question, and I don't have an answer yet. Programming is the only marketable skill I have.

Learning a trade such as plumbing or being an electrician is something that I've been thinking about.

I have started several businesses of my own over the decades, and doing it again is a real possibility. At least, it's a reasonable fallback position.

I don't hire plumbers or electricians that need to commute 2 hours each way.

Plumber and electricians don't work in cube farms or horrible corporate campuses.
