I mostly lurk, as a former LLLL and IBCLC now in my third year of law school.
But I couldn't let this comment go unchallenged:

<< Are you going to pay for it for me?  My employer(s) wouldn't and I can't
 afford it. >>

"Affordability" is subjective. I can't "afford" to go to law school. I'm
divorced, with two teenagers, and I'll be $50,000 in debt when I graduate in
May. But getting a law degree is so important to me that I've rearranged my
life around making it happen.

I brashly assert that IBLCE certification is within the financial reach of
every single person on this listserv. It may take months (or years) of
planning, you may have to moonlight at a second job, you may have to eat
beans-and-rice 5 nights a week. But it's doable. You just have to want it
badly enough.
