Perhaps if your life was an open book and you were willing to provide for a full audit of the sacrifices you have made to get there we could determine if it was really worth it. It is easy to suggest that it was but without the full story no one will ever know except you.

Maybe I've read too many posts on APC to remember, but why is it again that you hang out here so much SkyHigh? I mean, I used to work in consulting and I wasn't happy, but I don't hang outside my old office building telling my ex-coworkers that they would understand how miserable their lives were if they just took the time to reflect on their sacrifices.

On the other hand, if all this negativity is just to get people to drop out of flying so that we can have a real pilot shortage, then more power to you! I'm with you brother ... I can feel my seniority climbing right now
