Bro, I built a business off YouTube self help videos and made 60 grand. I combined my short stay in college, with a little JC, letters of recommendation, and YouTube self help videos to stay paid from 21-26. I finally said fukk it and got a real job. Im looking past my own nose now and planning for the future. I like the security a job provides but the politics are a turn off. When there's enough food on the table for two but four people want to eat it might be time to find your own table.

sometimes, youtube is great for do-it-yourselfers.
Also, just googling directions on how-to is great too.
So much free information out there. I wonder how much money service people, plumbers, electricians, mechanics, lose money from people doing the work themselves. There will always be people who are scared even to touch a wrench, open a book and figure stuff out so they'll always be work out there.
