What are honorable professions? My oldest daughter is studying to be a nurse. She was a CNA. She took care of the elderly in a nursing home. I cannot think of a more honorable profession than being a nurse or a CNA. They should be payed more than they are.
Being a fireman is an honorable profession. All they do is put out fires and save lives, putting their lives on the line every day. They should be payed more than they are.
Being a farmer is an honorable profession. All they do is feed the world. It is a life of toil and sweat. They should not have to struggle as they do.
Carpenters, electricians, plumbers, etc,etc,etc. Those are honorable professions. They create shelters. Key word, "create". Should be able to make a decent living doing that.
There surely are other examples. Can't think of any right now.
Is it honorable to make the quick bucks without serving or creating anything? I don't know. All a matter of opinion I suppose. No sense in creating or serving when you can do much better by putting the ball in the hole. But, you have to be an exceptional put the ball in the hole person.
How about taking advantage of all those foreclosures, use the float game and buy for nothing and sell for much? Make the quick bucks. Create the cash. Saw that one on tv. Man shows you how to get rich quick using his buy low sell high method. He's makin the cash. He wants you to as well.
Make the quick bucks. no sense in breaking your back all of your life creating things. Get out there and get that payola and let the slugs do the hard work. you can do the honorable thing and throw them a few crumbs every now and then.
