There's the fun aspect of training your own players as other people have touched on, but the financial side is probably up for debate.
In my opinion, and I'm not much more than a novice at BB, I believe that training can be very profitable if you train well and don't pay too high a salary to your trainer. I think it also depends a lot on your league situation. If you're in a league where you can ensure players get 48 minutes but still win a lot of games, therefore getting 4+ on fan survey and drawing in the crowds, then training has to be very profitable. I'm currently in a situation like that. At higher levels of course training could seriously impact performance, and then you could only speculate as to how much you lost through training 3 players @ 48 minutes for example.

Lower your arena prices, and you'll get your financial benefits :)

There's your problem right there. You don't need to pay for an exceptional trainer and no, you aren't going to get even close to your investment back because of it.
If you love training players and are trying to train guys to play for national teams, then yes, having a level 6 of 7 trainer is worth it for many people. For you, pay $12-15000 a week for a level 4 trainer instead.

The way I think about it is paying for an exceptional trainer instead of an advanced is like paying for 4 scouting points per week instead of 2. There are tangible benefits (extra pops) but you pay way more for each extra pop ($10K/week per scouting point at 4 instead of $5K per week at 2). The difference between advanced to exceptional level trainer is even worse, because an exceptional will likely have more than 2x the salary and an astronomically higher price to acquire than an advanced trainer. And the benefits are only probably 2-4 more pops per season, or maybe 18-20% over a level 4 trainer. So clearly, not financially worth it.
The only reasons you would have an exceptional trainer: (1) You are training a NT player, (2) you really love training and aren't concerned with doing everything perfectly optimally geared toward club success, or maybe (3) you are tanking and making ridiculous weekly profits anyway. Just like if you know you will have the #1 pick and have only a few weeks to interview several intriguing prospects, you may find it temporarily worth it to invest $40K/week in the draft for the extra 2 scouting points. Long-term and for most teams though, this strategy doesn't make optimal financial sense.

Not even that. Check training data site or past training threads.
If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

I would love to find 5/5 draftee ... I hope this trainee would become a U21 NT player, that's an honour to my team.
Let's train our players!

Right, I was just posting a # I thought I remembered off of the top of my head again. Maybe it's not quite correct, but I don't think it changes my point so I didn't think it was worth looking up the exact "right" answer. But if you would like to find that information, please be my guest.
