So, let us hear your suggestions for a better life, it is clear that people hope for a lot of things, some in vain and some not.

People do get stuck in a life not of their own choosing, but if you look at their history it is clear they made a series of choices along the way that brought them to their present condition.

For you aviation was a dead end and you chose another life-others will do this also in many fields. Nothing really new here, but if you are not happy it is time to move on.

Some might find your life a true nightmare, but it suits you and that is all that really matters. You often comment on the lives of others as being a nightmare, but they clearly don't see it the way you do. You have called both Military and Airline pilots sociopaths in the past, and you are welcome to your own point of view, but in reality control over the outcome of life is largely an illusion.

Most of us do what we can to make the puzzle fit, most of that fitting is internal.
