Factors:
1 - Some of the degrees are in crappy fields that there's simply no demand for. Like History 2 - Baby boomers aren't retiring. Those high paying jobs aren't being released to younger workers anymore. 3 - As the article says: Too much supply of highly educated workers. And they don't want to do manual labor, like being a plumber etc.

Plumbers can make bank.
I think most of us are quite familiar with the articles point by now.

cater to the wealthy, speak proper english, look good, smell good, do quality work, and use quality materials. as a trade if you do that you will be fine. (fine is subjective to your own standard of living)

Unionized trades are all good. They protect themselves from immigrants or any types of minrotiy

Was speaking to a few timmie's owners.
Apparently you don't become wealthy owning one Tims, you have to own 4-5 Tims (which is probably why most owners do).
