625 is a huge amount my friend, you could prob ask a good bartender to teach you himself for less than that!

For just getting to know your way around the bar, I would not pay over 350$ and another tip is, if it'll be sometime before you travel, get a PT job as a Waiter or Server at a bar, and trying and pick up some stuff from the staff there, and not only will your learn some stf, but you will also have some experience

I've been tempted to get a job in a bar to see what I can find out about mixing drinks. I think that would be a hella job.

Too bad I don't have a cute butt and boobs.. I could just be a server. Tsk!
