I worked as a carpenters helper building homes at age 16... 21 years old I built my own home... completely independent financially...no help from anyone....well except for the bank that took a chance and gave me a loan.
I had been told by guys older and smarter than me that working only 40 hours a week would never, ever be enough to make it happen... that I should work two jobs to double my pay...it worked.

My point being that peoples expectations versus the effort they are willing to put in don't match.

I have built homes for teachers...always marveled at the amount of paid time off they had.
