I will spend my days playing peter pan as long as God lets me. I don't know what black hole you live in that sucks all your money away, but I make a decent living as a regional FO, and I have been able to pay off my debt and buy a house in the two years that I have been employed here. I also have multiple outside investments that are making me plenty of money and building me MY FUTURE. And while all that is going on I still get to play peter pan. Guess I haven't grown up yet though.:rolleyes:
And most likely you never will. Staying young is one of the great things about being an airline pilot. Even well into your forties you can live in a crash pad and survive on top ramen like a bunch of college kids. Fun...
