I'm a 4th year apprentice as a Union Operating Engineer. Luckily it pays really well and pulls a 6 figure income unless it's a bad year. In which case I'll still pull close.

We also started breeding Great Danes and sell each pup between $1k - $2k depending on color. We have our second litter of 13 pups which will be due to start selling in about a week.

My girlfriend is a nurse but only works parts time right now. So that helps out.

Eventually, I'll work on starting another business. I left the one I had when I moved from Cincinnati to Pittsburgh. I don't expect to do that for at least another two years or so though.

I also happened to go to our local 4wheelparts during a huge sale and found a used XRC bumper with hitch and setup ready for tire carrier for $75. Both of these bumpers brand new cost around $550-650 new. I sold the SRC to my buddy and kept the XRC. Tons of deals on craigslist and you never know what you might find.
Not too shabby, nice job

Stay at home dad. I have to balance my discretionary spending between my Jeep, my guns, and golfing.

I work 3 jobs, eat ramen noodles, don't have the AC on in my apartment. Well. Everything is true but the ramen noodles. :-) Also single with no kids.

I just polished off 11 days straight of work to afford some mods. I watch the forum and local groups on FB posting things for sale. Also a lot of free to no cost mods.

I have been an automotive Service Manager over the last 30+ years with the last 18 with SoCal Chrysler/Jeep/Dodge dealers. So I live everyday with the addiction. It helps when you service a lot of offroad vendors..........

Just starting out at 21 I'm currently working for a Maintance dept for the local school district (sucky pay) and going to college at night and online. I've managed to build mine one piece at a time and it's came along good over the past year.
