Your training cost buddy, you’ve just paid for it yourself.
Since we're sharing lightbulbs, any idea how many folks who start training never make it to their first year at a 121? Medical DQ, Lack of funds to complete training, QoL issues, family issues, other debts?
Maybe stop encouraging people to soak up over 100k in debts for a job that's not 100% guaranteed. That's bad advice. Not shopping around for good rates for training in a competitive market is also bad advice.
No one is going to walk up and hand you a 300k job with an easy path to get there. Anyone who's selling this is either trying to sell you something or has drunk the Kool-Aid themselves.
