So my kid is all ready to buy that SLR.
What paths have other techs here taken to get their 100k per year jobs?
I am nmot attempting to sway my kid from being a tech or a service writer, but I don't want him taken to the cleaners as well.

Their marketing worries me a bit as well. UTI claims the euro car companies need technicians, and asked them to train students. I guess I can believe that, but when they tell me I'll be making 70-100k/yr, I feel I'm being lied to.
Alot of people who aren't in the industry, keep telling me how great the pay is, yet when I talk to someone who's a tech, they say "No tech is making 100k/yr."
