My blood boils every time I read some a$$ posting $hit like this. GA pilots fly because they love it. Airline pilots, on the other hand, have invested time and money, sacrificed family and friends, quality of life, retirement saving opportunity, and a host of other things for one reason - airline pilot pay (or what it used to be). If money is so unimportant, why are so many guys at the majors beginning alternate careers?
