I don't think I have eaten top ramen
since college. Normally I will have a steak, lobster, fish, really whatever I feel like. I don't live in a crash pad, I live in my house with my wife. And for you to imply that pilots never grow up, but doctors, lawyers, dentists, and policeman all do is a highly uneducated statement. It is not about the occupation, but the individual. My mother raised three children working in a grocery store deli and with a small amount of money from my father. I make far more money than she ever did, but she somehow managed to provide us with food, clothing, and a nice place to live. Once again, I don't know what kind of irresponsibe spender you are, but perhaps
you are the one that needs to grow up.
