On the other hand, many who will complain about price or never take a class at all will have no problem spending 100's of dollars on anything labeled "zombie", or whatever new gadget they can get to bolt to the rail of their AR.

I've been through a lot of expensive training, most of which was not paid for out of my pocket. Even though I cannot afford much training right now, I think it is a valuable investment. You get what you pay for.
If they created a zombie-killing class, you know all of these folks would jump on it. They'll spend money to escape reality, but not to face it.
I agree! I too see it as an investment.

I'm taking this class next week. It's $140 for an 8 hour course with 2 hours of range time. For someone like me brand new to shooting this class will be well worth the money. Wont be the last class I take, either. It was kind of a given, for me, when I decided to get a gun that I'd have to invest in some training.
Training is like a life insurance policy.....it IS life insurance. The more you have the better off you are. You have to know what your are doing when the SHTF. Get as much training as you can afford. The practice, practice and practice some more.
... The shooting courses that I would love to take are outside of my price range just to afford the required ammo count, let alone the course fee...Truth be told, I'm kind of jealous of guys who can bank the money to attend.
