It’s a great career to get into, especially if you’re young. The personal rewards are wonderful, and if you start young enough, the financial rewards can also be great, especially if you DON’T work for a gym and branch out on your own (although starting out in a gym is great if you’re just newly certified...just don’t stay there). I started too late to reap the financial benefits...like any start-up business, you have to have the time to build up your clientelle and not have to work a full-time job to pay the bills. At 52, I had the traditional mortgage, car payments, bills to pay, so couldn’t concentrate on fitness as a full time career. Still...I pull in about $500 extra a month. Your daughter should seriously consider it.
That’s very informative. I’ll definitely talk to my daughter about this possibility as a career.
