      It’s certainly a respectable job, but it’s not an overly well paid job which is probably that guys quibble. As with many jobs it depends on the specifics, but it seems like the job pays around $38-55k depending on where you live. It looks like some areas can get a bit higher (NYC had some data indicating $65k/year).

      For a job that only requires a high school diploma and a certification that’s not bad, it’s just not particularly good either. If you have two people making roughly that amount it’s probably good enough to live comfortably, but not live very well.

      It’s the Andrew Tate mentality where the only acceptable partner is either an “Alpha” making $10 million a year and is conventionally attractive or doesn’t work at all and is even more conventionally attractive.
