Good luck in the business.... Making that kind of cash is rare in an average body shop. You will learn 10x's more working in a shop for a year than you will going to a tech school for two years.... you basically get the basics in school. ICar and ASE stuff looks good on paper, but in the end any monkey can pass the tests.
Well..... Im in the "Trade Act" program. My job was out-sourced to China so the US tax payer is paying 100% for my re-education (thanks guys).
I looked at my options and decided, hell they can't send cars to china to be fixed.
It also opens the option to do small custom work from home for a little extra cash.
But really..... I'm enjoying school including my non-automotive classes (math, writing, psychology), I may go for an additional degree or two.
Hell, the house is paid off, cars are paid off, don't have any kids. We don't need to make as much as we did before.
