James R : Or...you could do both!!
Scubadobado : Thanks! This was provoked by people being negative on both ends. S77 (don't remember his whole screen name w/o looking) is super negative about Commercial Diving and I have seen a lot of people saying how being an instructor is worthless. If it was worthless, we all wouldn't be in the fields we are in or even diving as a recreational sport. (Food for thought for all of us.)
Sat Diver : Hehe, yea...I know I could easily pull $60, 80,or 100+ as a com diver once I get some experience under my weight belt. I was just stating I would be perfectly happy making $40k....everything over that is just butter! The more I make, the faster I can pay off our house and other items and then focus on banking money for our retirement; my parents retirement; and my kids futures.
