I worry about what you might go to “a guy” for in the under 40 set. If @profgalloway.com is to be believed the young men don’t know many skills these days. I know a guy who can, plumb, do electric, hang a garage door, weld etc… Has given way to “I know 100 guys that can beat the main boss”.

You just dont know the right 20 somethings. My neighbor is like 26 and is definitely a know a guy. My sons might not be a know a guy themselves but they know a guy...their 40 something dad.

My future SIL is a guy. He’s working on a journeymen’s cert. he did plumbing before this but didn’t care for it enough to make it a career. Most of his friends are not. He’s 25. My daughter is less of “a guy” unless you need something medical handled. 😂 Then, she’s your go-to!

Having a Nurse Guy is great. The best part is when they can tell you That's Nothing To Worry About. Invaluable peace of mind, double especially for your kids. Mine was my FIL, but like so many Guys he is no longer with us. At least I learned a little about painting (rooms, not canvases) from him.
