Chart the net income of all pro pilot careers from start to finish and compare with any other line of work. Then interview pilots who made it to the top. You will find that flying is a very low paying job unless someone else paid your way in the beginning, AND you had a hookup into the majors. Poor kids simply never make it to the top airline jobs because the rich kids are always two steps ahead. I you don't get into a good major then you would have made a lot more driving a truck. Your pilot training would have bought a nice house.
