I guess I'll never understand why someone would pay 30k for Gulfstream. I paid $3,500 for my CFI and the company I worked for paid for the CFII. During the 8 months I was an instructor I averaged around 85 hours a month. Now I work at a good regional airline. I enjoyed instructing it made me a better and more knowledgeable pilot.

I have a feeling that the guys who are always complaining on these message boards are the same guys who are to good to become a CFI.
"If after only 400 hours you are feeling burnt out on flying small planes, perhaps a career in aviation isn't for you."

There were two Gulfstream guys in my class. Both complained about how poorly the operation was run and about maintenance issues. They don't call it scare stream for nothing. On top of that one failed his systems test, maybe he should have thought about getting a decent education before flying passengers.
