Is it possible to be in it just for the money like some Doctors, now I know doctors are different from pilots because they get pay more to start and they rank#1 as the higest paying carrer job in the usa.

Just want to know since being a Pilot is in the top 10 of the higest paying jobs in America and the top 5 of the most dangerous jobs, and most people like myself love to fly and want to make a carrer out of it, how is it possible for people who are going to make a carrer from flying to be in it just for the money. Thousands of Flight Hours, Master Degree, Connection
To say that pilots are the higest paid is like saying that Actors are highly paid. A few are doing well but the vast majority are starving. Stay away if you are in it for the money.
