Personal trainer as a proffesion.

I was wondering, how much can someone make working @ a gym?
I know that it changes a lot from area to area but I'm curious.
Also, how about being a personal trainer (getting some guy to pay you to teach him forms & all that stuff)? What's the average income per hour for that?

Here's a good article if you want to be a strength coach.

You're better off being the boss(orthopedic surgeon/doctor) if you're smart enough. Most of the trainers I talk to say they wish they would've gone that route.
