It all depends on one’s age. If you have less than about 10 years to fly, you will have to chase the junior widebody or captain, along with a commute when they are in their early sixties to see as much as you would be making now. Not everyone wants to do that Also no guarantee that you’ll still have your medical. Pulling in $200K, or even $150 for an extra year and having that in the bank NOW is just that. Money in the bank. One in the hand beats two in the bush.
