If working at a Legacy was the magic bullet for a long perfect career, Id be lined up for a shot at working at one of them in a heart beat. I dont think anybody is dense enough to actually think that is the case though so lets all roll the dice and wish each other the best career possible.
Great post. I like where the next few years appear to be going. However 20-30 years from now is anyone's guess.
Our future will be dramatically impacted by the Emirates and NAI's of the world. There's no telling how it will all play out, but it probably won't look anything like it does today.
Start saving now, and save often. You'll thank yourself down the line whether the worst happens or not.
Eric,
Glad to hear you've landed on your feet. Thanks for sharing a dose of reality with us all. Best of luck to you over at Spirit!
