True. I know bartenders that quit professional jobs (attorneys, CPA's,
actuaries, etc.) to tend bar...some have invested wisely, they have bought
shares in a bar, retired early, etc....

A guy I know is a waiter at the Four Seasons, he makes well over 100K...he
has a lucrative dog - walking bizness on the side, too. He lives better
than pretty much anyone I know...
