I used to agree with some of the things that you have said here, but not lately. I hear all kinds on things on the line too, but you have to learn to weed out 90% of it as ridiculous.
Then take it with a grain of salt, just like everyone else.
And as far as cost of living, Charlotte/Mecklenburg County and North Carolina in general are more expensive than a lot of places to live. Taxes on all sorts of absurd things. Compared to places like Florida and Texas, where a number of pilots / young flight instructors live, it is much more and your dollar doesn't go as far. There's a reason I stay living in Florida. Could I afford NC? Yea, sure. Is my QOL better in FL? Sure is.
