Retired CPS Energy, Serving San Antonio Rodeo with Todd Fleming

Our education and job system is broken.

We force everyone into college to major in any random course of study and graduate after 4 years.

But some of these degrees don’t have a job market out there for them after college. So they end up behind the counter, as Starbucks baristas. Simply making ends meet.

But there’s good news.

There’s a good career path you can take without wasting 4 years in college.

In fact, there’s a huge gap for these kinds of people. Tons of business owners are asking for people who followed this path.

So what is this career path?

In today’s episode, Todd Fleming, a CPS Energy veteran retired at 55 years old, shares why learning a trade is a great career path. You’ll also discover the massive freedom and monetary benefits that come with working as a skilled worker.

Listen now.
