It all comes down to money, huh?
My art teacher (SAMBORSKI, FTW) once told us that it always costs you one thing to learn something else. And I think the reason I remember it so well is because how true it rang (and still rings) to me; in this case, the more literal meaning of my art teacher’s statement is what comes to my mind all the damn time.
Especially looking at this list of materials needed for a homestudy course for learning the craft of watch-making. All of it amounts to about 2 thou.
And since I’ll be paying bills this weekend, bringing my total account balance to about 20$…2 thou I do not possess.
Now…I’ll admit that watch/clock-maker/repairer isn’t too high on my to-dos. Not many young people get into the trade, anyway; it’s not one of those jobs you need to start working at in your youth.
But I feel bad for neglecting it, is all. XD;;; Ohh….
