Questions:


1. For a 4 year college graduate - should poverty level even be a part
of the coversation? 2013 average college 4-year degree graduates
is stated at................................................ ....45,000 $ per year

2. For a 4 year college graduate + additional schooling such as a
master degree, dental school, law school, pharmacy, accounting
or aviation, where additional income (example 25,000$) above and
beyond a 4 year college graduate average pay for 2013 (45,000$)
is added to it (example 45,000 $ + 25,000 $ = 70,000$), should
poverty level even be a part of the conversation?

3. For a 4 year college graduate + additional school + 6-8 months of
travel time on the road (extensive travel time, per diem, etc
can easily add to 15,000 $ per year) can equal to the following:
45,000-4 year degree +25,000 additional schooling +15,000 travel pay
which equals to a grand total of............................85,000 $. For
this scenario should poverty level even be a part of the converstaion?



For all 3 scenarios (1-3), Poverty Level should not even be a conversation topic or any party of the scenario. But is is our industry of
aviation !


Would love to see where everybody is at and your thoughts, thanks !
