My wifes an MD so I get to pursue my passion for aviation. I fly because I love it and I would think most of you would do the same. Its a shame that everyone wants to retire for a years work! If you dont like it then I hear Home Depot needs help in the plumbing dept. Lifes short, enjoy what you have and what you do because it could end tomorrow in a blink. I left my job at age 34 to pursue my aviation career and took a huge pay cut and it was worth it because I get to fly. Its just sad to see so much anger towards the industry.
