I want to spend weekends with my spouse. I want to enjoy my life now while I’m alive and healthy and not half dead with a walker. I haven’t met anyone over 60 yet who wish they’d worked more when they were younger. If I was under 30 and single I might feel different. I don’t want to waste another 5 years climbing a ladder while life slips away.
Spirit has 4 days off mandated between trips per their contract. AND much better 401k contribution than any regional. Spirit will be around for a while…other regionals I’m not so sure. It’s a gamble either way.
