NASM certification, would this be a good career path?

[cola]

i've been searching for a career path and at 26 next month, I think I've found it.​

A little about me, I'm 26 and about 4 years ago I discovered fitness. I love it. I didn't take it seriously the first 2.5 years because I was in a toxic LTR. Once i decided I'm done with that, as soon as she was out of my life for good I joined a gym. I started seeing results shortly after and have been hooked since.

What a difference in life. More looks from females, more energy, better in bed �� and I even was able to quit smoking because I enjoy the gym so much I want to be able to go harder. An hour a day at the gym 4-5 days a week improved my quality of life 7 fold.
I've found a gym home, I've become friends with alot of other regulars and even a few of the trainers.

So to the point I want to be a personal trainer. I began studying for the NASM and was wondering if anyone had advice or can tell me any downfalls I may be missing..

I love the gym so I get to be there all the time..
I like helping people so I get to help improve lives
I get to train hot chicks all day, I'm sure I'll bang a few
I will meet afcs and get to give them the red pill

I know it is a lot more of sales involved than most people think, but I am charming and think I should do OK.

I have a night shift job I can keep until business gets going..

I figure I can do bootcamps somewhere a couple time a week if I can get 30 folks at 10 bucks a piece that will help

So am I missing anything or overlooking something?
Anyone a trainer? Can offer advice?
Is NASM the way to go?
Any feedback would help thanks

how much competition have you got? do you have a lot of rich people in the area? Do you intend to rents space and equipment? that can be super expensive. How do you intend to advertise? Have you got personal liabiity insurance?

Amendment: this may be being ambitious but with my red pill knowledge and my personal trainer cert, maybe I could combine them and be a "lifestyle coach" of sorts?

That's later in the future but who knows, shoot for the stars right?

how much competition have you got?
Im not sure, I mean obviously some
do you have a lot of rich people in the area?
I'm not sure about a lot, but yes definitely some. I live in Baltimore a typical big city. Interesting fact, my state(MD) has the richest county in the U.S.
Do you intend to rents space and equipment? that can be super expensive.
Not at first but eventually. When I finish my cert I have a good relationship with my home gym. I'm about 85% sure they would hire me.. At least at first until I get experience. Once I get enough clients then perhaps id invest in my own space/equipment

How do you intend to advertise? Have you got personal liabiity insurance?
Social Media, Craigslist, News paper, Cold approach, The radio if I can, flyers.. Anything I can to get my name out..

As far as insurance I'm fully aware it's needed and would definitely pay it.

Could a MOD move this to health and fitness? It's a few guys I wants opinion on this like biblebelt, marmel and espi and I think those guys pretty much frequent that forum exclusively
