    Loved this interview! I've followed Boyd right after I joined a cybersecurity bootcamp. I started following you a little over a year ago when I was working at a specific building and someone told me I need to check you out. Both of you have been such an inspiration. Boyd an I share and almost similar story of why I got into cybersecurity. I'm a little late to the game age wise, but I made someone a promise and just trying to fulfill it. Glad that you two are helping and sharing information that is paramount to being successful.

      @chandjno-lewis6121 It makes perfect sense once you realize that having a certification will not land you the job, having the right skills and experience will get you the job. This is me speaking for years of experience in a different industry where I having been job hopping for 3 years. I am now making the transition into cybersecurity and I also am taking his course which is by far the most advanced course I have ever taken. I don't know anyone else who focuses on shifting the mindsets of the people who take their course.

      Well...The program is $15k and you will not get a whole lot that transfers to the real world. Just imagine what you can do with that amount of money. Many people on the hook for the money and most even took out loans and got kicked out of the program b/c it's only a 6 Month program. Doesn't matter what happens or how far you get, at the 6 month mark, you are done while still owing $15k. No guarantees of anything of course. Just Ruthless!
      It's best to find a boot camp for a few hundred vs such an expensive option that is in a very niche industry -- 'PCI'.. And for what he teaches about PCI , you do NEED a CISSP cert; NO exceptions.
      However, the truth is you do Not need certs to get in cyber or IT...it's a fact. You'd be surprised how a nice resume and just simply applying will be more than enough. Cybersec is looking for people from all different backgrounds to train them. We Need more people in cyber!

    Guy has a cool story but don’t waste your time with his program, it’s for sure a scam. Talked to one of his employees or partners and they drag you along before making you pay and give you no insight to what you’re getting yourself into. Very disappointing experience
