You will learn that those things do not last. I used to think the same thing when I started out. The most money I ever made at a regional as an FO was my first year. We were understaffed, the contract was good, and I lived in base. Then the company decided to build an entire month of 75 hour lines and I saw my paycheck get cut in half. Then the airline went bankrupt.
Anything out side of your hourly rate X 75 hours is out of your control.
