Sky, I'm glad you got your life figured out for you. Why you think that applies to the rest of the world still boggles my mind.

Maybe for you. Maybe not for the next guy. He's going to make his own choice. You get to give your input on how wise that choice might be. After that, you constantly knocking that choice is a waste of bandwidth.
My estimation of an aviation career today is based upon the risk, and investment versus return. As such some may choose to preserver in this profession but it then is really a subsidized working hobby and not a true income generating profession.
People need to know what they are getting into. My efforts are to continuously point out where the profession is failing since new examples and readers arrive everyday. I am sure that you do the same in support of aviation.
