A licensed septic contractor will make a whole lot more money than

You have no way of knowing that.

The one I know clears over 150,000k a year and gets to write off a lot
of his regular living expenses, like most contractors, so he pays
fewer taxes. (wife and kids drive a company car etc)


So, the guy who pumps poop, gets paid more than a dr, dr, dr that only
spews poop, by about 40 grand a year?



As a full-blown psychotic, you have need of both services.

BTW, I don't for a minute believe a guy who pumps out septic tanks is
netting over $150,000 a year, unless he has a huge corporation with a lot
of workers. The average pump out around here is $200 and the process
takes at least an hour and a half, with lots of down time and travel time
to customer sites and to dump what is in the truck. I can see a hard
working self employed guy grossing $2000 a week for part of the year,
working very hard, and netting, oh, at least three times what you net, PsychoSnotty.

How's the post hole digging going?


A lot of septic tank pumpers also rent porta potties. Good money in those.
The income is enough to buy $100k+ trucks and pay for the yard and still
put money in the bank.
