Advice on Apprenticing in SW Florida

[Avery Todd]

Dave,

I'd like to ask you a question. Would you make the same offer to a
university where you'd like to learn "whatever"? When I wanted to
learn something, I always offered to pay them. Not them pay me!
Sorry to be a wet blanket and I appreciate that you're trying to
learn, but............ I'm pretty damn good at what I do but I've
never asked anyone to pay me to learn it! Sorry.
