Not usually. That is all on us. Really, it

is not required that you take XXX class. It is more if you want to be a good MT, you keep your skills up.

I think you need a hobby just like the other poster said. Find something you love to do/are interested in and then go with that. It is not worth all the work to be an MT for such a short amount of time anyways.

I agree with making websites too since that is something you know a lot about. Have you thought about taking any classes? You could even take some over the internet, mainly something that would just give you personal fulfillment.
