We are to much in debt to stop!
In all seriousness many of us got into it as young 20 somethings that didn't know any better. It seemed like a good career with decent money (that's what the admissions reps were telling us anyways, they also told us we could have our PPLs in just 35 hours) We signed on the dotted line, and now owe our souls to the aviation dragon. I for one love what I do for a living. I got in to aviation to be an airline pilot, but stopped short when I realized my passion was to instruct. Given the aviation job market place, it could take you much more than you think to land that King Air job. Seriously entertain the idea of becoming a part time Flight Instructor on the side of your day job. Of course what you aim for is possible... but don't be surprised if it doesn't pan out the way you hope either.
Just my two tarnished pennies.
