I’m a licensed electrician. I do construction for my job.
If I didn’t need to work to support myself and my family, I’d offer my services as a licensed electrician to my community at-cost. I’d charge for materials, but not my own labor. Basically, just use the skills I have to support others in my community who could benefit from those skills.
But I also wouldn’t work anything close to 40 hours/week.
It’s really satisfying. I’ve done this a few times, fixing someone’s home when they couldn’t otherwise afford it is one of the biggest ways to make an impact on someone.
Done this in IT for folks, even back when I was charging for it. No one has the skills and knowledge to do everything in the modern world, and not everyone can pay a pro.
