Actually, I have a college education in arts. I wanted to become a sculptor. Alas there's no way of making a living here that way. So I did what I thought was the next best thing, designing and building furniture... Hah! what an error! Cabinet makers earn barely over minimum wages.
I would recommend that little daughter learn administration of institutions for older people care. That's the future of today's newborn.
Cabinet making is a dying craft, as are our forests... Dang paper!
