Sometimes that means working more than one job, in the 80s, not only did I work in a bike shop, but also at the shipyards, loading and uploading container ships, generally 12 hour days and some weekend nights I might be bartending, working the door or even relieve the DJ and work the booth for a while. Anyone who wants to make money can if they are willing to work.

They just have to work double what you would have to succeed. Nothing wrong with that, right? I mean, that is apples to apples, your experience and someone now that is getting 50% less buying power with the dollar they earn with the same hour of effort.
