    Goersch, you know that the German proverb quite often ist used the other way round:
    It's quite expensive to hire a skilled person to do the job. -
    Or imagine: Craftsman passes by in his new Mercedes. People in the neighborhood say. "Handwerk hat goldenen Boden" in the meaning of: This guy is quite well off.

    @wundertype.de: I thought this WAS the primary meaning! Is there another one?
