Multi Time (100hrs) - $8,000 (split with another pilot)
CFI, CFII, - $3,000
Sally Mae Loan- for the $45,000 = $113,000 in about 15 years
New job at the regionals making $20,000 for the next 3 years=

PRICELESS
For everything else, there's uncle sam, waiting, to TAKE HIS 20% AWAY FROM YOU EVERY WEEK!!!
Earned a college degree and got all the way up through my CFII, with only a 4k loan to pay back. It's all how you work the system!
