High paying careers? (1 Viewer)

[...] although much has been written about those in their 50's (the typical mid-life crisis stage), almost nothing has been written to discuss the life changes and stressful times of people in their early-adulthood stage of life.

How true. I was stunned to realize this myself.

Sorry to hear that, it can be really tough. Things were bad in the industry when I got started too, so I worked as a waiter for a year and a half while knocking on the same doors every week to find that first lousy CFI job. Out of my grad class at school only about 10% made it to an airline, but everyone who didn't give up did make it. If you hang in there your timing might be right for the next upswing in hiring. Gonna be awhile, but it will come. It always does.

Yeah, I'm working for someone else in the industry. At this point I'm making enough I doubt I could afford to take the pay cut to take a flying job full time.
