Yes. I’ll co-sign the OP.
I’m an IT professional [low 6-figures], My homie is a Barber; He’s make more than I do barring incentives. The incentive I have may out-weigh his income; i.e. TSP [401k] matching, Health Care, Paid Leave, etc.
I’m proud of him. He’s striving in his lane.
If you own a popular barbershop, maybe.
Otherwise, no. Especially if you're paying for health care/dental/vision/401k out of pocket.



just taking it day by day
.....it's like saying every OF model is making 6 figures. There's plenty more barbers who are broke as fukk than there are making 6 figures. It's extremely difficult to make that type of bread in any trade. Especially with the amount of competition out there. It takes years and years of grinding and self promotion to get to that level. Unless you just have serious connects or catch a huge break somewhere. It's not about education vs trade, it's about self ambition. The cream will always rise to the top. Whether in a trade or the professional field.
