Default airlines vs. corprate vs.cargo vs. "bush"

I'm looking for some seasoned opinion's about a career path but I'll listen to anyone with a serious answer. I LOVE to fly airplanes. I won't be happy doing anything else, I realise that now at 39 with a wife and 2 boys(10,12). I went and got my comm./ multi/ instr. just before 9/11. and have been a reluctant penguin ever since. flight instuctor pay is for single guys shacking up together, eating ramen noodles and riding a bike to work. I'm sitting at 270 TT 60 ME and really can't afford to make a move in the wrong direction in this new wave of opertunity so, pilots, I want to know what the pro's and con's you've seen in each career path. Lately, flying a twin otter in the Carabean or Alaska has cought my attention. Anyonrein here doing that? If you KNOW someone in these jobs for the more hardy pilot not so concerned with the pay, feeel free to put me in touch with them. thanks, Andrew
