    I know it's an unlikely mix, but I am a plumbing contractor/journeyman and also a competing bodybuilder and soon to be certified trainer...any chance I can make a living in Cancun doing either of these? Thanks, any help is appreciated.

    Don't expect immigration to give you permission to work in Mexico as a plumber. This is a country full of under-employed people and immigration protects their jobs. I recommend searching the archives of this forum for lots of info on getting a job in Mexico and on on immigration policies in Mexico.

    And welcome to the board.

    Plumber? I don't know, but I've seen a few adds on the paper looking for personal trainers. Who knows, you might get lucky.

    If you did personal training you would most likely not be able to get legal working papers.

    In addition, it is very difficult to find people that will pay you what you deserve as a trainer, and very difficult to find people that are consistent and show up, with money in hand.
