How did you survive a late apprenticeship at 35?

I'm 35, drive trucks, earn good money. But I don't want this forever. I always wanted to be a tradie working for myself. I can't AFFORD the pay cut for a 4-year apprenticeship. For those who did an apprenticeship late, how did you survive? Was it worth it?
 
Always wanted to, never could.

Been driving trucks now for 21 years and I’ve hated it for probably at least 15 years.

I’ve tried againn and again to get out, can’t be done, so now I’ve given up and doing the opposite and going all in, buying my own truck to hopefully dig myself a path out that way, it’ll never happen as an employee.

It means locking myself in for at least another 10 years but at least it’s a plan.
