Knowing that I earn practically nothing, but still love what I do

oh crakey! i want to throw up. clearly, you are in the first 200 hours of CFI'ing... Pretty soon you will come to realize, that not everybody can succeed at flying airplanes. And the more you let wash out and dont spoon feed them everything, the more you help out our industry. Then of course wait until your letting them try Vmc demo for the first time, and watch how they fail miserably, damn near putting you into a flat spin, just because they didn't want to study the maneuvers because American Idol was on last night. i can only vividly remember about 5 out of 100 of students that I enjoyed flying with. good luck and keep drinking that kool-aid
