Cosmetology School: An Investment in Yourself That Doesn’t Depreciate

Published: December 20, 2008

Paying tuition to a cosmetology school is truly making an investment in yourself. In this recession, is there a better place for your money? If you, or

maybe your parents, have been watching a stock portfolio dwindle, the interest rate on your savings CD slide or the price of your house plummet, you may have lost confidence in stocks, banks and real estate. None of the traditional nesting places for money has turned out to be a sure thing. But you— you’re something you can count on, something you control. Your future career—whether you achieve it through beauty school or other training—is what’s most likely to earn you money that you’ll live on all your life.

A lot of people believe in the get-rich-quick idea: put your money into some high-return investment, and you’ll have free cash forever. Yet, as we've seen in recent news, some of these “investments” are no more than schemes that implode after a while. Other high-risk endeavors are launched amid favorable market conditions but eventually tumble even more quickly than they climbed.

Absolutely, the stock market has had some very profitable years, and people have made money. But ultimately private individuals have no control over the rise and fall of the housing, financial and commodities markets. When you have skills that address needs in the marketplace, though, you’ll always have paying clients. My advice is to invest in yourself, and going online to check out cosmetology schools is a great place to start.
