I love this thread!

Speaking from experience. I have made a huge sacrifice in my flying career to pursue a college education. I am suffering right now because of it. But I know in the future that degree will pay off.

I am not flying to make a lot of money if I wanted a lot of money I would be doing something different. That being said.

Being a Pilot should be all about enjoying your job, even if you are sitting below the poverty line.
