Of any kind? If so, can you tell me what you're doing and what your current life is like?

CompTIA certificates are very basic I have a Comptia A+ the best you can do with a certificate from Comptia is work at GeekSquad, or target showing people why type of ink to buy. Getting a degree is a million times better than some basic certificate. I don't know a lot about CisCo certification but those are more advance look into that if you're really interested in certification.

That's not entirely true. You can work at fry'/s doing computer repair with an A+ certification, in fact it's a requirement. And while a degree might be a nice addition it's not required in the technology field. If you have the right certs, and enough experience then you don't need a degree. And if you have CISCO certs then your damn golden.

Geeksquad does not require an A+ cert. And geek squad does not just do computer repair though. You can work at geek squad installing Home Theaters. One thing is true though, Geek Squad are over priced as fuck
