It's no where near as good as it used to be. You will not become rich doing it.
The top paid people in Vancouver are lucky to get above $100k a year after tax.
If you enjoy it and want to do it, then go for it. It will pay the bills, you will always be in demand and its a trade that will offer you a lot of skills that can be transferred to other areas if you so choose to.

If you wanting to do just bodywork, the money is crap, the work is hard and the amount of chemicals and stuff around you is very high. Look at most guys who have been doing it for 20-40 years and they are half brain dead from the stuff they smell all day.
