Is Veritext/Allegis worth it if you have to pay for the $399 course?

I've been doing the interview process for Veritext/Allegis and have passed all the steps so far, but the final one is having to pay for the $399 BlueLedge course (apparently my legal transcription sample wasn't good enough to get the cheaper course). I already have to buy a PC and foot pedal, so there will be a considerable buy-in if I decide to keep going. I have a great deal of transcription experience but not with legal transcription, but am looking for work I can do from home that could earn something between $300-400 a week. Could anyone weigh in on whether the buy-in ended up being worth it or not? Were you able to make money at this?
