Odds of Hanging On
There are few universal truths in this world. What appeals to one person is appalling to someone else. But, when it comes to making the world a greener place and saving money, everyone is pretty much in agreement. They want it, and they're willing to hire you to do it.
If you land a job as an energy auditor, the chances of hanging on are really good. Newsflash—employers like to save money. Who knew, right? That's doubly true for homeowners. A little extra money saved every month on utilities means they can save more for a rainy day. Or maybe they'll go to Vegas and lose it all, but hey…Vegas.
As long as you're easy to work with and honest in your appraisals, you can be in this career for decades. You can even apply your awesome skills to your own house and hang on to some extra green of your very own. Talk about a great deal.
