Back in the early 80s I decided to take the courses and the tests to obtain the Electrical Inspectors Licenses from NJ.

I invested the time and $$$ to do it (while younger), and just put the paper in my wallet. I looked to the time when I was going to put down the tools for whatever reason, and close my business.

Yes, I paid for the renewals every 3 years to have the paper in my wallet, along with the mandatory CEUs for those licenses.

I feel now that it was one of the best moves I made.

Reno is right, we are all getting older! I took an inspector position in 2002, kept the business running till 2005.

Yes, bennies are really important, and have to be considered in any move we all make.

The only one who can guide you is yourself!
