3rd year Emirates B777 F.O.

820 hours (hard work - 3rd world, back-side of clock, ultra-long haul, etc)

$92,450 (tax free)

Per Diem: Not sure, we get an envelope with local currency on check-in. e.g. 48 hr IAH = $165, 3 day Luanda = $500, 24hr moscow $85. Never have to hit the ATM unless its a "big" night.

Five bathroom villa with maids quarters in gated commumity = free.

All utilities = free (including gas for your outdoor BBQ)

Pvt education for kids free or heavily subsidized depending on school.

Chaufeur driven Volvo/Audi sedan to work = free

Universal family healthcare - almost free.

In-flight dining & service - top-notch. (I make sure I eat caviar, smoked salmon &fillet mignon at least once a week - coz it would be rude not to)

777 upgrade running at four years (for guys of my vintage that is. Today 7-8yrs)

BUT...drum roll...

...It aint Kansas over here.

Happy for now, but tip my hat to the boys at SWA
