i hate when people tell me how bad they want to be personal trainers.

let me tell you something, personal training is ALL SALES (/spoiler)

you know those car salesmen that do ads on TV- well, if you were to give them a issue of muscle and fitness and have them study it and then give them a shirt that says "personal trainer" on the back and i am willing to bet 1000 dollars that they would make more money than any well muscled trainer with a NASM cert
Spot on post! When I graduated from high school, I was going to become a personal trainer and there wasn't  damn person on earth who was going to tell me other wise. After doing some internships, I quickly changed my intrests in area of study within a few days.

Damn! I too got laid off after 18 years in Aerospace. This was almost 2 years ago. Haven't gotten it together since.
Whoa! Were you government contracted?
