Is A+ cert pretty useless in 2019?

[xXMASHERXx]

I think the most important aspect that the A+ will teach you is self learning. If you want to be successful you will need to learn how to find resources and learn things on your own. Sure some companies will send you to training but they will not send you to training for everything. Some things you will need to read some KBs or white papers or set up a lab for testing.

I was studying for the A+ then got a good job in another field. I'm a good writer but there's only so much money in that.

I wonder if it's worth it to start again.

Depending on what you consider "good" money, technical writers can yield 6 figures. You can also work on multiple projects at once if you wanted to go the independent contractor route.

Why do you want to get into IT and what field are you coming from? With little or knowledge of IT, A+ would be a good start.

Start looking for a new job any way. Look for entry level help desk and put that you're close to obtaining the certification. If you fail, at least you can see what areas you need to focus on.

I started about 2 weeks ago actually, like you changing careers. There are two tests you can take at different times that you need to pass both to get the A+ cert

what kind of job are you trying to get?

after you get A+ are you going for other certs like network+ and security+

For the level, $15 per hr is good money so I would say it's worth it. You can earn 15 dollars a hour doing harder shyt. It's not going to get you 6 figs but it can get your foot in the door which is hard af in IT.
