Ahahah. I'm so glad you get to have the "experience vs. training" non-discussion in the rest of the world, too. You ever notice how it's always the low time guys who somehow cast the discussion in those terms? Listen, junior, no one is saying that training is not important or necessary. It's every bit as important and necessary as experience, which is every bit as important as not being a fool in the first place.
Now, personally, I think anyone who pays hundreds of thousands of dollars (or equivalent coinage) to get in to this industry is almost certainly a fool, but that's neither here nor threre...
