I'm contemplating my next batch of training...half way through a Cisco CCNA qualification now (as it's interesting and well paid work eventually as a bonus) which is a never ending learning process but with full support from the company who runs the exams and certs...and doing it for free almost unlike the couple of grand or more that firms like Computeach charge for the same thing.

Can I ask how you are able to do the CCNA for almost nothing? Know someone who is about to pay several thousand for this course. Thanks.

So from the screenname on a forum a fraudster can find your real name, your postal address, banking details, and everything else they need to duplicate you.. wow! question: is that the case for all 'ordinary' people?

If you are patient enough and have time to read someone's hundreds of messages, you can find out where they live, their job, their partner's job, their age, what job they do, what hours they work, who their providers for TV, BB, phones etc are, their views on race, politics etc, as well as car make, food allergies etc etc.

They may not steal their identity, but it's now unknown for people to lose jobs, be sued etc etc

Trainee clinical psychologist. 26k per year going up to 27k this month.

Congrats - I know how hard it is to get to this stage. Can I ask how you managed it? Were you a Psy assistant previously and then go onto trainee? Is it a funded post grad position?

I am in my second year undergrad and needing things to keep me motivated to keep going, especially being in a part of the country where there are no opportunities!

My salary - Age 24, work as an administrator/receive calls from distressed clients (with no training!) about £6-7k per year.

Student loans about 5k per year. Luckily my partner earns more than I do but we still struggle a lot and have lots of bank fees to pay every month as we are awful at managing our finances no matter how hard we try to stay on top of it!

I'm hoping that once I complete my degree (another 3 years away!) it will increase my salary, staying optimistic!

I know open uni do a CCNA course (you obv have to arrange the exam yourself) and in Scotland, depending on your income, you can get OU courses free.
Also in my previous job, which was in cisco network support they paid for some people to do the course. Not many and they don't do it anymore
(I joined too late ).
I would like to question the idea that you will get a well paid job with it though. I know people with CCNA on 18k etc. Of course you can then work for higher qualifications.
