Yuuup, the ones who make serious cash may still be on job sites part of the time (the ones you want to hire sure are…) but they’re making so much money because their main jobs are sales and management.

Same as anything else, the real money is in getting a slice of the value of a bunch of other people’s labor. A tradesman who’s quite good at their trade, but no good at management or sales, has a much lower cap on earnings because this route’s not available.
