I obssess over it and I'm currently in a nutrition for athletes class and it's the only class I am actually interested in so I believe that is goal I should go with. I'm just not sure which direction to take with it, Personal Trainer, Nutritionist, etc.
    If you want to make REAL money none of those things would be adequate. I mean you said RICH so trainer won't make too much and nutritionist would be ok but nothing close to rich. You need to get more of a mind set of OWNING related to health and fitness. And that involves getting educated on all that stuff and how to present a nice plan to the bank to get your loan since you're not gonna have capital to start with. I know I'm making it sound so easy but obviously it's not but that's where not giving up and pursuing it comes in. And btw, I'm not saying don't be a trainer or nutritionist if that's what you like, you said you wanted to be rich so I'm giving the response based on that. I mean unless you truly work harder and smarter than 99.9% of the trainers out there and become the trainer to the stars or something along those lines, but owning is still the way to go and more realistic.

    I know... But I was thinking of making one of those my major and have business as a minor. So when I get out I could perhaps create a business plan with the knowledge of nutrition and whatever else, along with my business background. And about joining the service, they've pulled my chain and ****ed around with me so much I'm about to give them the boot. If they need people so bad they need to actually treat em' like decent people coming in.

    Two rules for success

    How to have a successful career:

    1. Find out what you would do even if no one paid you to do it.

    2. Find a way to get them to pay you to do it.

    (Also the secret of life happiness, by the way.)
