Like many American kids, I mowed lawns for most of my disposable income as a kid. I even mowed a few laws after I bought my house. I figured out photographing a wedding was harder work, and often just as sweaty, but less dirty than mowing, but it payed better.
My business partner mowed a lot of yards when he was in high school. All of his class mates were broke high school kids working at the grocery store or flipping burgers. He always had a lot of cash from mowing.
My neighbor asked me why I don't just hire it done. I told him I need the exercise, and I like the instant gratification. When I was laid up with my hip replacement (8 years ago) I hired the 81 year old man that lives in my neighborhood. It was weird for me to see some octogenarian mowing my yard while I just hobbled around on a walker or cane.
