Which career are you likely to earn more in?

Question

I am thinking of changing my career and starting an apprenticeship at 21 in one of the following?

:Painting and Decorating

:Floor and Wall Tiling

:Plastering

:Blockpaving

Which one would potentially earn you the most when sub-contracting your own business and working 5-6 days a week?

Also, is anyone aware of any benefits or government assistance i can get for beginning an apprenticeship at age 21?

Answer 1

Pharmacy...

metronidazole... nitrid nim; metal and that sort of thing not cross placenta but cns yada yase

Answer 2

Painting and decorating is a fully skilled trade, compared to plastering or bricklaying which is semi-skilled; however, every dipstick thinks they can be a painter and you're forever working with those types and competing with them money wise.  Plastering is a dying/difficult trade because so much is prefabricated and cutting out the plasterer and along with tiling you can spend a lot of time between jobs.  Plumbing, electrician, carpenter much better.  Even roofers though they have problems with weather can earn really well when they do to compensate. Good luck.

Answer 3

Not a clue about the gov benefits etc, but i have a strong feeling that you would earn most in the plastering trade if you were good at it.  Dont need much training to be a painter and decorator tho, perhaps you could do both in time? then someone could hire you to completely overhawl a whole room!

Anyway good luck on your future plans.
