yes, my spouse has a career and brings in about $50k a year. unfortunately there are student loans to be paid off. i find it funny that people go and spend so much for school only to make enough money to pay loans back so that their take home pay is as much as it was before the degree. but sometimes the point of an education is not about money, but about doing something that you love to do.
oh well.

i, too, work and plan on working through flight school. my job is fine and i even have a small business on the side that brings in a bit of spending cash. but non of these things are really brining me any kind of joy or gratification. they just end up being things i do.

it makes me sad to read replies that discourage me from entering the airline industry. i guess could play it safe and keep on doing what i'm doing, but then i'll never really know if i truly followed my dream.
