How much training/education is required? How much would it cost? How are you trained to get started? If it were a hobby, would it cost alot of money? Would you make money? or break even? Is there a place for advancement?

If u r trying to make this a career there are lots of schools around the country that can get u started with good training and won't brake u. Also there a areas of advancement like management but most r finachal. As a hobbyist ur best bet is to read as much as u can. That goes for training too. Good luck bro.
