I went through my local work development program they paid up to 3000 dollars towards my tuition.

I did the local collage, and they passed me a number to call. It was a group just wanting to pass me money for the class and I would not have to pay it back unless I was to drop out or stop this line of work before six months. I ended up doing the local work force. it worked out great, it took 60 days to get all the paperwork but was worth it.
Be careful doing the truck company school.
I know more than one that did this, it was a lot more money and you are contracted to them for however long the contract is. One guy showed me his papers for doing that, he owed 10 grand.

Found a solution. Going to sell my jeep (02 grand cherokee with 35,000 miles) i own it and got a buyer for 8k. Buying my old camaro back from my cousin (94 z28) for 3k.
So this puts me at netting me 5k and lowering my monthly expenses by 80 dollars. (Difference in insurance cost.)
this allows me to pay for all cost up front and giving me a months living expenses in the bank. And by paying upfront i will end up making more my first year as im not paying interest and having additional money removed from my check. -
if thats what it takes.....

try for the "short course" on driver training...usually 4 weeks...should (hopefully) be less than the $5,000. -

then you made a profit selling it...?? that rarely happens....
good luck, keep us informed.
