However, while we might have a higher net worth, our ability to earn what we make here would be significantly reduced. I'd definitely want us to be able to earn at least $15/hour with affordable, good health coverage with reasonable vacation benefits. Ideally no, or very minimal, nights, weekends, or holidays at that pay range.
If you are considering manufacturing then you might look at how your current public safety background might translate into an EH&S position. There is a need for experienced individuals at a lot of facilities and it might allow you make a lot more than entry-level IT work....
