Forget coding bootcamps—NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang just dropped a bombshell: America’s next wave of millionaires won’t be tech bros, but skilled tradespeople like plumbers and electricians. With wages soaring past $100,000 a year and zero student debt, these hands-on heroes are in record demand, with a shortage of over 500,000 workers in the U.S. alone.
This prediction comes as AI and automation disrupt white-collar jobs, while massive projects like semiconductor plants and renewable energy hubs spike the need for physical infrastructure.
‘As the world goes digital, it still runs on pipes and wires—and those who fix them are the future,’ Huang said.
Experts are buzzing, with labor economist Dr. Sarah Kline noting, ‘This is a wake-up call; trades are now a golden ticket to wealth and stability.’
Could this be the ultimate plot twist? As tech races forward, the real money might be in a wrench, not a laptop. What do you think—time to trade keyboards for toolboxes?
