A lucky few are able to accpmolish that however the odds are long and the reality is that most will not end up living where they wanted or earning what they need. If you are a confirmed bachelor who does not care where they live then as a pilot you may have found your paradise.

I am happily married to a wonderful woman and have 3 great kids! I work with lots of guys whose lives come first and the career second. Life is what you make of it not what one gets or doesn't......
