With money being a large part of what I do for a living, I can't help but wondering how much various things cost and how much people make.
How much do you think professional MMA trainers make? People like Marc Laimon and the such. I have absolutely no idea, but I'm assuming around $250,000 USD a year.
I wouldn't be suprised if it was a quarter of a million a year. If you think about it, some really good trainers can charge up to $200.00 an hour. Even on a 4 hour day, that's $800 a day...5 days a week...
That's a hell of a lot of money for doing 20 hours a week. I guess I"m in the wrong profession Then again, how many trainers actually charge that much? I guess even at $100.00 an hour, that comes out to be 104,000 which is pretty darned good also.
That's quite a hefty income. Especially for doing something you love. Maybe I'll go off and do something like that. Hell, I'd be fine with charging $75.00 an hour and just doing it part time.
Im not suprised at all at these figures. A lot of the trainers are very professional. I haven't had the luxury of affording one yet, but I feel that learning by yourself is better.
You develop your own style, and a sense of originality and accomplishment. You don't want to be your trainer's mini-me do you? Especially if he's teaching the same stuff to 10 other local guys?
