I once tried to stick up for pilot pay, as not being so bad, but I am beginning to see just how much people can make, outside of aviation. It isn't all peaches and cream, but I know of plenty of people who graduated school with starting salaries of $60K+, in various careers, including some, that just a few years later, are making six figures.My wife started at 90K from day one out of college in medical sales. She is also provided with a company car and the gas and insurance are also payed for. She is well over 100K now and only has a bachelors degree. There are much better professions out there than aviation!
