Spent $200 on a Python bootcamp and it was a total waste

I signed up for this online course that promised to make me job-ready in three months, but the videos were just a guy reading slides and the projects were super basic. I mean, I learned more from free YouTube tutorials in a week than I did from that whole thing. Has anyone actually found a paid course that was worth the money?

You got what you paid for, a basic start.

Yeah @emma_garcia, a basic start is better than NO start.

Honestly that whole "you get what you pay for" line is the official motto of people who overpaid for something basic. It's like paying for a fancy steak and getting a single meatball. Sure, it's a start, but maybe let's not act like it's a great deal.

My friend paid double for a "premium" toaster that burns bread worse than her old $15 one.
