Sound engineers are a dime a dozen.

You need to have connections.

You could live large one year, and have nothing the next. If you got a job in a studio as the in-house engineer or producer, you’re looking at $ 20/hour.

As for producers, *everyone* thinks they’re a producer. It’s a very, very, very hard field to get into.
