/ TV / PT vs. Real Jobs

[Guest guest]

,

The tv shows are going great. They won't ever be all filmed, until I quit doing the show. I have to have a new show every week, so I have to tape and edit several at once, and then tape and edit some more. I don't tape again until October, but I still have to go down there and volunteer on other poeples shows and edit tapes together to make new shows. It's a never ending process, but a fun one. This weeks show is a personal training session with my 13 year old son. I can't wait to see it tonight on tv!

As for the Personal Training Certification, GO FOR IT!!! I'm sure you can pass the test and will be a great trainer. You can do training part time like you do classes, just to get your feet wet. Personally, that is what I started out doing, just a couple of clients each evening. But then it exploded on me and I had to quit my full time job because I was overrun with clients. If you get enough clients, you can actually make good money. The problem is that it is so sporatic that sometimes you'll be working 40 to 50 hours a week (which is great at $50 an hour), and sometimes you are only working 10 hours a week. But definitely take the test and do a little part time. You'd be great at it!

Tonya / PT vs Accounting

Tonya, you're an inspiration to me! I'm not moneydriven either. Someday, when I am more accepting ofmy body, I will take the PT cert and maybe, eventuallybe a personal trainer too and teach more groupexercise classes. It helps when you're married and have the doubleincome. I am single and don't know if I can make itdoing only fitness, so that's why for now I keep it asa hobby. Still, if nothing else, it would be great to get thePT cert just for the knowledge and just to say "I havemy PT cert"!How are your tv shows coming along? Are they allfilmed yet?Bowing to Tonya,
