I am in Kenya I have shared this with my nephew who is recently joined a college for architecture Been encouraging him to try side hustles when not in school in any of construction ( the safer ones) to get a feel and gain experience and with time, could use the certification plus experience to relocated to better prospect countries What better way than for him from hear it from a man! 😊

I wanna get into trades so bad but I have no connections and no education 😭brI have an opportunity to work in a tire shop tho, if I get hired, I would like to use that experience to progress into a mechanic apprenticeship and eventually move onto plumbing Guys, does my game plan sound smart? Be brutally honest if you have to, I need some sorta guidance to get into trades, my main targets are mechanics and plumbingbrbrEdit: I also wouldn't mind HVAC, I live in Texas and I know they make bank here in the summer
