Who in Toledo makes 250K?

you were in the hospital?? Hope you are doing better, brainy. ((((HUGS))))
I don't know about the plumbers in your area but the plumbers here make a killing.
Almost all of them have a second or third business.
the average starting charge in our area is $85/hr and some of them even start at $125.00
that's even for them to just come out and look at what's wrong...
if they have to come for an emergency then it could get really outrageous.
a couple of them own billards and a lot of real estate...
