Seems all these hypothetical situations Envoy guys continue to play are scare tactics to gain from others..... It's not that complicated as to what the deal is.... No tricks behind it.

The only way not to play with fire is to not be dependent on PDT for a paycheck if they go out of business tomorrow. You said you a background outside of flying. You should leverage that so that you have a back up plan. A 3-6 month emergency fund is a must as well. How would you vote if you didn't need your PDT paycheck? That's the way you should vote. Otherwise you are selling your soul, if you will.
