So, I stumbled across this ad: http://online.amospublishing.com/Re...CB422800DF6EE26B1C27196504AA15D002&ChunkNum=0 I'm by no means a good grader, but I was wondering how much experience they would need for the apprentice position. I'd be happy to be an actual slave if I got paid to look at coins all day. Seeing as I'm about to graduate from college, and don't really enjoy what I do, this seems exciting. However, I know there is no way I could ever get in even at the apprentice level.
I think the salary has to be in that range since it is in california, where the cost of living can be quite high.
Especially in the Newport Beach area, but so far as I'm concerned, Orange County has the best year-round climate in the world. (Admittedly, buying my house in 1964 did save me a few bucks over current prices. )
Well, I am honestly going to call. I'd be willing to relocate in a second, and I would definitely be willing to work my rear off, and I actually don't even think I'd feel like I was working. When I'm not doing school work and my fiance isn't around, I'm simply doing coin stuff. Despite having a college degree soon, I've already made plans to become a coin dealer someday, once I become much more knowledgeable, and have already obtained financial backing for that. This seems like the perfect way to become more knowledgeable about coins.
Why ? What does a doctor, lawyer, engineer, architect - or any professional make a year ? I know plumbers, electricians and heavy equipment operators that make over $100k a year. Bottom line is - if you are good at your job, you make good money.
