John’s Answer

I am married, live in a nice neighborhood 30 minutes north of Charlotte, NC, and have 3 cars, all paid for. We have money in the bank, and all of our bills are paid. To answer your question, yes, a welding career can most certainly pay off. To add to that, no school loans to pay off.

James’s Answer

Most definitely! The sooner you learn and get into the trade the better. Look into a four year school if that's the route you want to take. I'm an instructor at a trade school. Trade schools are where the future is. Faster paced and shorter than their expensive counterparts. Try to find one that offers an associates degree of you can. I welded for 10 years before I decided to go to school. I'm sure glad I did but wish I would've done it sooner. No matter what the economy is like, someone ALWAYS needs a welder. Just remember it's only an inconvenience for a little while. Learn something from every weld you make.

James recommends the following next steps:

Look for a good school; trade or other
Set up an appointment to meet and take a tour
Repeat with another school
Decide which one you want to go to
Commit to one and celebrate your future
