I didn't say I have to fly on the side for additional money. Perhaps this flying is twice a month to a really great place--I like going there--and who doesn't like a lot of extra dough for a little extra work?

Airline pilots with military backgrounds ROUTINELY maintain their positions in the National Guard--they don't HAVE to, they WANT to.

CEO's of huge corporations ROUTINELY sit on the boards of directors of other companies---they definitley don't HAVE to do it, but perhaps the perks and compensation of doing so HIGHLY outweighs the time/effort put forth to serve on the board?

Just a thought.
